Brooklyn Ballet brought a diverse repertoire to the new Sapan Greenport Theatre to celebrate the opening of their newly revitalized Arts Center! With a community matinee performance and evening gala, we welcomed residents from the North Fork to experience our unique and signature approach to ballet and street dance.

Brooklyn Ballet's Elevate program advanced the North Fork Arts Center's mission to foster creativity through inclusivity and community. During a 3-week residency, Brooklyn Ballet presented Elevate performances and master classes to Greenport School District students and extended its offerings to a local senior center, celebrating the power of dance in everybody.

As our Spring Semester comes to a close, we bid farewell to our seniors, who have made our studios and stage their home over these past years.

Congratulations to Hannah Borenstein, who will be attending Binghamton University in the fall, Sofia Tancorra, who will be attending Trinity College, and Stella Forsyth and Mischa Panchal, who will both be attending Swarthmore College!
