The Ballet Arkansas Staff and Board of Directors are proud to welcome you to this year's 10th Annual Turning Pointe Gala on March 5th from 6:00-10:00pm. The black-tie optional Gala is Ballet Arkansas' premier fundraising event, and your attendance/sponsorship supports world-class programs and performances that uplift, enrich, and inspire more than 30,000 Arkansans each year. Attendees will enjoy a cocktail reception and silent auction with live music from JAZZ R US, a seated dinner with live auction, signature performances by the professional dancers of Ballet Arkansas in the Wildwood Theater, and dessert, dancing, and a moonlit farewell with live music by the Dizzy 7 Band. We hope you'll join us for "Confetti," a celebration of Ballet Arkansas' 43 wonderful years as a pillar of the Arkansas arts community. It will be an evening to remember. Tickets on sale until Saturday, February 26th at midnight.
