Support Our Season

The arts are essential to our culture, our communities, and our well-being. But like so many organizations across the globe, Minnesota Ballet continues to feel the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have made incredible strides toward recovery, the challenges still remain—audience numbers are down, and operational costs have increased as we navigate the complexities of a post-pandemic world.

For 60 years, Minnesota Ballet has been a cornerstone of the Minnesota arts scene, providing breathtaking performances, nurturing emerging talent, and enriching the lives of our community members. Yet, as we continue to recover, we find ourselves facing unprecedented financial strain. Our dancers, staff, and instructors have shown remarkable resilience, but we need your support to ensure that the beauty and power of ballet continues to thrive in our community.

Your donation today will directly support:

• Artist & Dancer Support: Ensuring that our dancers and choreographers have the resources they need to rehearse, perform, and grow.
• Educational Outreach & Engagement: Providing opportunities for young people to discover the joy of dance and fostering the next generation of artists.
• Community Programs: Expanding access to the arts for underserved communities and bringing the transformative power of ballet to people of all ages.
• Operational Recovery: Addressing the ongoing financial challenges brought about by reduced ticket sales, disrupted performance seasons, and the continued uncertainty surrounding large gatherings.

In this time of rebuilding, we need your help more than ever. Together, we can ensure that Minnesota Ballet not only survives but emerges stronger, more vibrant, and more connected to our community than ever before.

Your help is needed now. We're calling on our community of dance enthusiasts to donate to Minnesota Ballet's SOS campaign. Our goal is to raise $6,000 on Give to the Max Day to to ensure Minnesota Ballet continues its 60 year legacy of bringing high-caliber classical ballet and contemporary dance performances to the Northland.
