Every four years, February gets an extra day. Some people say it's to help balance the calendar with Earth's orbit around the Sun, but here at Collage Dance we know that it is really an opportunity to take a giant LEAP forward towards our vision of creating a world class ballet company and school.
Why else would it be called LEAP DAY if it was not an opportunity to advance, rise and soar???
For over a decade, we have asserted that ballet can be different, and we have been in the studio changing it. Our stages can reflect our communities and ballet can LEAP forward and be part of today and not just reflective of the past. Collage performs for more than 30,000 individuals each year through local performances and national/international touring, serves more than 4,000 young people each year and is committed to telling the stories of the American South.
Like most performing arts organizations, Collage relies on donations from individual supporters to provide its world-class programming. With your support, you can help propel Collage to become the leading international Black ballet company while remaining deeply rooted in the Memphis community.
Will you join me this Leap Day and donate a gift of $29 to support their mission to inspire the growth of ballet?
Thank you!
About Collage:
For 14 years, Collage Dance has worked to inspire the growth and diversity of ballet. Collage Dance is one of the only professional ballet companies in the world with a roster of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) dancers and the Collage Dance Conservatory trains more children of color in a classical art form than any other non-profit in the area.
The organization has grown tremendously since 2009, is now one of the largest 50 ballet companies in the United States and was recently named a Southern Cultural Treasure by SouthArts and the Ford Foundation.
The Collage Dance Conservatory welcomes students of all backgrounds and races and is proactive in its efforts to engage students of color in an effort to address the racial inequity in classical ballet.
