Founded in 2020, the Bayou City Ballet Youth Company provides high quality performance opportunities for advanced ballet students pursuing a professional career in dance. We strongly believe in the power of ballet to change lives. In order to share this beautiful art with the entire community, we program an array of educational programs throughout greater Houston each season, including master classes, performances, and workshops, that are accessible to everyone. The Youth Company also raises funds annually to help defray the costs associated with performance, thereby allowing us to offer need-based financial assistance to its company members. The Bayou City Ballet Youth Company is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law.
