Friends of the Ballet

Ballet Yuma is a non-profit organization dedicated to excellence in performance and education, and to enriching the cultural climate of our community.   The Company obtains the funding to pursue its goals from three main sources - ticket sales, fundraising activities/events and donated support (it does not receive money from tuitions paid to the Company’s official school, Yuma Ballet Academy).  So, if you appreciate the level of quality you witness onstage at a Ballet Yuma production, please know that the Company is indeed a stand alone arts organization, and YOUR financial contribution is vital to the success of its efforts. Please consider supporting Ballet Yuma by contributing at ANY level.  In the lobby you will find information regarding making a tax deductible contribution.  Thank you!!
