EnglishHow to Support Ballet Concerto
Updated
You can support Ballet Concerto in three main ways: donate through the organization's donation link or via Venmo @BalletConcerto, purchase a table at the annual Summer Dance Concert, or volunteer. Ballet Concerto is a professional, non-profit performing arts organization based in Fort Worth, Texas, and it states that it exists thanks to community generosity — so contributions of money, time, or both go directly toward keeping its performances and outreach programs running.
Donate
The most direct option is a financial gift. Ballet Concerto lists two giving channels on its site:
- Donation link — the "donation link" referenced on the site's contribute section.
- Venmo — send to @BalletConcerto.
The site does not publish suggested amounts, tax-deduction details, or membership tiers, so if you need a receipt or want to confirm how gifts are acknowledged, ask the organization directly before giving.
Purchase a Table at the Summer Dance Concert
If you want your support to double as a night out, Ballet Concerto suggests buying a table at its summer production. The 44th annual Summer Dance Concert is scheduled for June 18–21 at ClearFork, themed around America's 250th anniversary. A table purchase is a larger-commitment option than a single ticket and is positioned by the organization as a way to contribute to the cause.
Volunteer
Ballet Concerto also lists volunteering as a contribution route. The site does not detail specific roles, time commitments, or how to apply, so the practical next step is to contact the organization through its website and ask what help it needs for upcoming concerts and outreach work.
Know What Your Support Funds
Understanding where the money and time go can help you choose the right option:
| Activity | What it is |
|---|---|
| Summer Dance Concert | Annual summer performance, presented every year since 1983 (except 2020), featuring nationally and internationally renowned choreographers and professional dancers from U.S. ballet companies |
| A Holiday Special | The organization's second annual concert |
| FIND (Find and Inspire New Dancers) | Year-round outreach program in Fort Worth ISD schools |
| Lecture/Demonstrations | Year-round outreach program in FWISD schools |
Ballet Concerto has been based in Fort Worth since 1969 and describes its mission as making ballet and other forms of dance available to all ages and backgrounds. Donations and volunteer effort support both the stage productions and the school-based programs.
Choosing Your Approach
- Want the simplest impact? Donate via the donation link or Venmo @BalletConcerto.
- Want to attend and give at a higher level? Buy a table for the Summer Dance Concert, June 18–21 at ClearFork.
- Want to contribute time rather than money? Volunteer — contact the organization for current needs.
- Want to do more than one? The options are not exclusive; donating and volunteering, or buying a table and volunteering, are compatible.
For current details on table pricing, donation processing, and volunteer onboarding, check the Ballet Concerto website or reach out to the organization directly, since these specifics are not published in the available site information.
