Friends of Commonwealth Ballet
As financial challenges to arts organizations grow, we rely on the support of our Friends - our monthly donors. Even with our strong volunteer commitment at all levels of the organization, the cost of instruction, choreography, sets, costumes, and administrative operations are always increasing. Our commitment to you is to provide the high quality, entertaining productions you have come to expect from Commonwealth Ballet. We ask for your support as a Friend to keep us financially strong.

Friends Reception
Each year in the fall the Board of Commonwealth Ballet hosts a receptions for Friends who have contributed to the company during the past year. We hold the reception at the Acton School of Ballet studios and provide home-cooked food and beverages, as well as a brief studio performance by CBC dancers.
