Syracuse City Ballet is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to showcasing the full potential of dance to the Central New York community. By performing both classical and contemporary works, we provide local dancers with valuable opportunities to hone their craft and participate in a regional ballet company. Our mission to offer rich cultural experiences and ensure accessibility for all relies on the generous support of individuals, private and public grants, government funding, and dedicated volunteers.
We are appreciative of your support. On this page, find a variety of ways to support and share Syracuse City Ballet.
Donate Now
Your support of Syracuse City Ballet has never been more meaningful as we recover and rebuild.
Prior to the pandemic, 60-80% of our revenue each year was earned from ticket sales. Due to the pandemic, we experienced a 98% decline in earned revenue; 2021 revenue was just a third of pre-pandemic levels.
Donations will provide for operating expenses with a priority on restarting our vast community outreach efforts to provide access to the arts to underserved communities.
Sponsorship
Philanthropic support from corporations, foundations and individuals allow Syracuse City Ballet to bring professional dance to the greater Central New York community. We thank them for their contributions and for their role in keeping the arts alive in our community.
Due to the pandemic, two years passed without ticket revenue to support operations. As we rebuild, we’re grateful to our sponsors for believing in our mission.
