With support from the California Arts Council, SAN DIEGO CIVIC YOUTH BALLET will send Molly Terbovich-Ridenhour, the organization’s Executive Director to attend the annual Dance/USA conference in Los Angeles, CA June 6-9, 2018. This event will allow for the opportunity to join 500 members of the dance field from across the country and around the world at the nation’s broadest gathering of dance professionals.
San Diego Civic Youth Ballet was founded in 1945 and has been the resident ballet school in Balboa Park ever since. In addition to offering high-quality, affordable, year-round training in the Casa del Prado studios, SDCYB produces three major productions at the Casa del Prado Theater each year: a full-length spring ballet, Fairy Tales in the Park each summer (which benefits the Scholarship Program) and the classic holiday production of The Nutcracker. There is also an annual Spring Showcase of the school and the SDCYB Performance Ensemble (which is comprised of the highest-level dancers) performs at special events throughout the community.
