Our first Atlanta Ballet's AileyCamp has been a great success! This program is truly a community effort and we thank you all for gathering around us as we launched this first year of Atlanta Ballet's AileyCamp. This summer Atlanta Ballet's AileyCamp provided dance, leadership, and personal development education programs to 64 underserved middle school students from metro Atlanta. The program culminated with an inspiring and uplifting series of performances from these young dancers.

We could not have done this without our amazing network of supporters:
