Sponsor a Dancer

Atlanta Ballet is thrilled to offer an exciting program that allows our friends and contributors a personal and intimate view of our company. 

The Sponsor a Dancer program allows a select number of patrons the chance to be affiliated with the most energetic and public part of our Company – our dancers.

Specifically, the program gives you the opportunity to become acquainted with one of Atlanta Ballet’s dancers and support her/him in his starring roles at the Fox. 

The benefits of the program include:

· Annual "Sponsor a Dancer" Dinner Event
· Private gatherings with your sponsored dancer
· Opportunity to visit backstage prior to Final Dress Rehearsal of productions
· Listing under the dancer’s profiles in the Fox Encore performance program
· Signed photo and/or pointe shoes
· Rehearsal schedule of sponsored dancer provided periodically
· All Encore Society Benefits

In addition, dancers may be sponsored by a corporation or group of individuals. For questions about sponsoring a dancer, please contact Alice Johnston at (404) 873-5811 ext. 221, or by email at ajohnston@atlantaballet.com.
