Operating continuously since summer 2016, Ballet and Beyond NYC is dedicated to enriching the creative lives of New York City youth through its FREE Summer Intensive Performing Arts Conservatory.

In partnership with an accomplished musical theater director, the Summer PAC runs for six weeks, Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

The dynamic curriculum includes:

  • Dance training in Ballet, Modern, and Hip Hop

  • Musical Theater training in Voice, Acting, and Theater Dance

  • Daily rehearsal for a culminating full-conservatory performance

All classes are taught by NYC professional performing artists, and students are supervised by counselors with performing arts training and experience.

Parents of past students consistently report that PAC has a strongly positive impact on their children’s confidence, creativity, imagination, education, and social and emotional well-being.

We rely on the generosity of individual donors to ensure that all children with a passion can benefit from a summer of dance. We value your support.
