Organizational Mission - Chicago Ballet Arts
To provide a structured, affordable ballet program with professional standards for our ethnically and economically diverse community youth. In the process, Chicago Ballet Arts strives to instill in its students a love of dance, a respect for the classical disciplines necessary for a performing art, and a capacity for excellence. Through our family concerts and open studio policy, we hope to encourage parental and community involvement in the efforts of our students so that their success can be viewed as part of the permanent fabric of family and community life, and can stand as an open example of the relationship between rigor and achievement.
