The Miami City Ballet family are delighted to invite young artists of color, their families and teachers to our first Virtual Open House events. Take class, meet company dancers, enjoy a virtual tour of the MCB studios and more.
Virtual Open House events are free online, interactive experiences designed to welcome and create access for young artists of color to visit behind-the-scenes of Miami City Ballet, one of America’s premiere ballet companies, and Miami City Ballet School, one of America’s leading dance training institutions.
These events are part of Miami City Ballet’s commitment to create equal access and opportunity for young artists, and to the future of our art form. This initiative is the first in a number of action steps and reforms we will implement over time to move ballet forward and become an art form for everyone.
Admission is free but registration is required.
MCB Company
Sat Mar 20, from 10am
The virtual visit starts with a short tour of Miami City Ballet’s studios. Then, company class begins, led by Artistic Director Lourdes Lopez. You can take this ballet class with Miami City Ballet dancers from the comfort of your home (or just watch if you prefer).
After class, join a group of MCB dancers for an informal town hall meeting where everyone is welcome to chat and ask questions.
This event is best suited for Pre-Professional students aged 16+ training to become professional dancers and interested in learning more about what it’s like to be a professional dancer, and professional dancers who want to know more about Miami City Ballet.
