Thank You for Making our Inaugural Block Party a Success!

Thank you all for attending our inaugural Atlanta Ballet Block Party and truly making it a memorable event. The outpouring of support for the Dancers’ Resource Fund was overwhelming. We ended up raising $4,400 for the fund with our first-ever block party!

The performances by the Alliance Theatre, The Atlanta Opera, and our own Wabi Sabi were breathtaking, and we all had so much fun dunking our favorite dancers in the dunk tank! We are so grateful for all of the support from our arts and community partners and all the Atlanta Ballet supporters. We could not have done it without you!

A special thanks to Peachtree Tents and Events, Kona Ice Midtown (20% Giveback Partner), Atlanta Ballet Boutique, Alliance Theatre, The Atlanta Opera, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Dad’s Garage, Actor's Express, High Museum of Art Atlanta, Fifth Group Restaurants, TopGolf, Theatrical Outfit, Stone Summit, Cooper Transportation, Good Food Truck, King Kabob, and Melting Pot!
