Dear Friends of the Alabama Ballet, 

We are truly grateful for the support you show us by attending our performances, sponsoring our dancers, making generous donations, and engaging with us on social media. Your presence and contributions are the heart of our community, and without you, we could not continue to thrive. 

The question of "Why do we need the arts?" seems to always exist. Take a moment and reflect on your day. When did you hear a song that made you want to move? When did you come across a photograph that brought a smile to your face or encountered a moment of beauty that captured your attention? 

Now, envision a day devoid of those enriching experiences. It feels empty, doesn't it? Art ignites that spark of experience and emotion within us. These moments connect us to something greater than ourselves and celebrate our shared humanity. Without that spark of inspiration, we lose a crucial aspect of what it means to truly live. 

Thanks to you, we are able to share that spark with over 15,000 people across Alabama each year. Thank you for making this possible!

With heartfelt gratitude,
