Corporate Partnerships

The continued success and longevity of Portland Ballet, our artistic vision, development of our dancers, and extensive educational outreach program are possible thanks to the generosity of Corporate Partners in our community.

Like most performing arts organizations, ticket sales make up 1/3 of our budget. The resources needed to not only present evening-length performances, but also to train the artists for this work and run a fully functioning school of classical ballet are vast. By supporting Portland Ballet, you will be investing in the future of ballet and contributing to the cultivation of arts in Maine.
