Purchasing Gala performance and After Party tickets directly supports SF Ballet’s mission to share the transformative magic of dance with everyone! Gala Proceeds help us create groundbreaking new works, preserve ballet’s timeless masterpieces, and provide scholarships for young artists at the SF Ballet School. Gala funds also benefit our community education programs, which serve Bay Area youth, families, and seniors, spreading the love of ballet. (also sf ballet community outreach, if so, what?)
