    Supporting our youth in the arts.

    Every single dollar raised directly supports NMBT. Hours of instruction and rehearsals. The cost of creating and maintaining detailed costumes. Imaginative sets and effects. New shoes for every dancer. Guest teachers, dancers and musicians. All have to be sourced, created, and pulled together to give our students the very best experience in the ballet and stage arts.

    Your donation to NMBT ensures that every year a new generation of dancers will carry on the legacy of dance.
