Pointe Shoe Fund
Columbia City Ballet’s Pointe Shoe Fund was established in the 1997-1998 season due to the rapidly escalating cost of pointe shoes. The Ballet provides its dancers with shoes – an average pair of pointe shoes costs $40, and a typical dancer goes through more than 35 pairs of shoes each season. With more than 30 professional dancers, it is a substantial expense.
The Pointe Shoe Fund allows Columbia City Ballet’s dancers to have the resources they need to perform their best. By contributing to the Pointe Shoe Fund, you are supporting the Columbia City Ballet, and you are literally placing the foundation of quality professional dance on our dancers’ feet.
Levels of Support:
$5000-Shoes for all the dancers for one production
$1200-Soloist’s shoes for one season
