Texas Ballet Theater Launches COVID-19 Relief Fund

FORT WORTH, Texas (April 3, 2020) – Texas Ballet Theater (TBT) has launched the TBT Relief Fund to support organizational needs impacted by the current public health crisis.

The nonprofit ballet company suffered financial losses with the cancelation of two productions scheduled to run this spring and the cancelation of its gala, as well as the temporary closing of its two schools in North Texas.

The fund will support dancer and employee salaries, general operations and other vital needs of the organization.

“TBT is a source of joy, perspective, entertainment and empowerment to our audiences and community,” Executive Director Vanessa Logan said. “A gift supports our artists and staff today, and helps us continue to present world-class artistic performances, nurture the next generation of dancers and unite our community through the universal language of ballet again as soon as we can.”
