Get acquainted with the most integral part of the company– the dancers!
The “Sponsor A Dancer” initiative is an accessible fundraising campaign that allows our patrons to directly support the individual artists of Charlottesville Ballet.
By sponsoring a dancer, you will directly support your artist’s salary, shoes, costumes, and wellness programs throughout the season. These restricted gifts help us create an incredible roster of artists from across the US and abroad.
“Meet the Artists” this season!
The “Sponsor A Dancer” program is designed for special recognition with gifts of $3,000 or more, but gifts of any size are appreciated and we offer our general tiered benefits at each donation level. Donations are tax-deductible and can be paid in any increment throughout the year!
