Mission Statement

Established in 2011 in Port Chester, New York, Ballet des Amériques operates both a professional dance company and a pre-professional ballet conservatory with the dual mission of developing and attracting audiences locally, regionally, nationally and internationally with world-class dance performances featuring original choreographies by director Carole Alexis and of training and educating students to the level of professional dancers who are able, upon graduation, to pursue dance careers with the world’s greatest companies.

Description

The artistic and educational concept of Ballet des Amériques is to develop the tradition of classical dance for the world of the 21st century - for a globalized world of interacting cultures - with the particular aim of developing inclusive cultural communities. To this end, Ballet des Amériques tours schools, libraries and community centers with its "Ballet is Not Pink" campaign of performances and presentations and invites the public to its annual in-house winter series "Evenings of Dance in Port Chester."
Your contribution will help us fulfill our mission through our performance, training and outreach programs.
