Jarryd Madden, Natasha Bowness, Jill Ogai and Kenneth Watkins AM
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO GIVE A new era of artistry is unfolding at The Australian Ballet under the creative leadership and ambition of new Artistic Director, David Hallberg. Contributing to our Annual Giving program is one of the most important ways you can shape this exciting chapter and support David as he forges a new creative path forward for the company.
“We are proud to be a world-class company with world-class artists, but we can only be this way with your generosity. Together, we will set a new benchmark for artistic excellence and secure the future of ballet in Australia for generations to come.” Natasha Bowness, President of Annual Giving
THE HEART OF PHILANTHROPY Ever since the earliest days of the company, our special community of philanthropic supporters has kept us inspiring and delighting audiences through the power and beauty of our performances. The generosity of our supporters is key to our company growing and thriving, and the future of the art form. The Australian Ballet’s Annual Giving program underpins the company’s everyday activities and contributing to it is one of the most significant ways you can play a part in our future. Supporters of the Annual Giving program become a patron of The Australian Ballet and join a special community who we get to know personally, and regularly offer opportunities to get even closer to the company.
BE A PART OF OUR FUTURE Join a community of ballet lovers who are elevating the company to even greater heights. The collective generosity of our supporters has the power to enable David Hallberg’s artistic vision of fulfilling the potential of our dancers, expanding our repertoire and touring footprint, and deepening our engagement with communities beyond the stage. Every gift makes a meaningful difference to the standard we present, as an organisation and as a national cultural leader.
With you by our side, the best is yet to come.
Jarryd Madden, Jill Ogai and David Hallberg
“Fuelled by your devotion and our shared love of ballet, I know we can continue to lift the bar and ensure all audiences continue to experience the very best of Australian and international artistry.” David Hallberg, Artistic Director
