BalletPalmBeach

http://www.balletpalmbeach.org  Artistic Director Colleen Smith founded Ballet Palm Beach, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization formerly known as Florida Classical Ballet Theatre, in 2001 to give local artists and dance students the opportunity to perform in full-length ballet productions.  The mission of Ballet Palm Beach is to preserve the art of ballet, impact young lives through the discipline of dance, and enrich the community through the beauty of ballet. In addition to five main-stage performances at The Eissey Campus Theatre the company is committed to community outreach through partnerships with the Palm Beach County Library System and the Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County.  Ballet Palm Beach's dance school is located at The Esther Center in Palm Beach Gardens with classes offered to students beginning at age 3 years old.  For more information about the dance school, call 561.630.8235.  For tickets and performance information please visit www.balletpalmbeach.org.
