Vision: Indiana Ballet Theatre NW Inc. is dedicated to the art of dance and to enriching the cultural life of our community. We support diversity and provide increased opportunity to persons of all ages and cultures who would not normally enjoy the prospect of participating in a professionally run dance company.Through our program of education and outreach, our successes can be related to our working in partnership or collaboration with other dance companies, professional entities in the related arts, and those in the broadcast or journalism media in order to broaden the base of understanding and to provide opportunity where no opportunity previously existed.Through dance and related arts, citizens grow personally, build character, and achieve an understanding of the teamwork required to attain the perfection necessary to stage a performance that will leave their neighbors and friends amazed and in conversation for months afterwards

						<p>Vision: Indiana Ballet Theatre NW Inc. is dedicated to the art of dance and to enriching the cultural life of our community. We support diversity and provide increased opportunity to persons of all ages and cultures who would not normally enjoy the prospect of participating in a professionally run dance company.Through our program of education and outreach, our successes can be related to our working in partnership or collaboration with other dance companies, professional entities in the related arts, and those in the broadcast or journalism media in order to broaden the base of understanding and to provide opportunity where no opportunity previously existed.Through dance and related arts, citizens grow personally, build character, and achieve an understanding of the teamwork required to attain the perfection necessary to stage a performance that will leave their neighbors and friends amazed and in conversation for months afterwards</p>		</div>

						<p>Vision: Indiana Ballet Theatre NW Inc. is dedicated to the art of dance and to enriching the cultural life of our community. We support diversity and provide increased opportunity to persons of all ages and cultures who would not normally enjoy the prospect of participating in a professionally run dance company.Through our program of education and outreach, our successes can be related to our working in partnership or collaboration with other dance companies, professional entities in the related arts, and those in the broadcast or journalism media in order to broaden the base of understanding and to provide opportunity where no opportunity previously existed.Through dance and related arts, citizens grow personally, build character, and achieve an understanding of the teamwork required to attain the perfection necessary to stage a performance that will leave their neighbors and friends amazed and in conversation for months afterwards</p>		</div>

						<p>Vision: Indiana Ballet Theatre NW Inc. is dedicated to the art of dance and to enriching the cultural life of our community. We support diversity and provide increased opportunity to persons of all ages and cultures who would not normally enjoy the prospect of participating in a professionally run dance company.Through our program of education and outreach, our successes can be related to our working in partnership or collaboration with other dance companies, professional entities in the related arts, and those in the broadcast or journalism media in order to broaden the base of understanding and to provide opportunity where no opportunity previously existed.Through dance and related arts, citizens grow personally, build character, and achieve an understanding of the teamwork required to attain the perfection necessary to stage a performance that will leave their neighbors and friends amazed and in conversation for months afterwards</p>		</div>

						<p>Vision: Indiana Ballet Theatre NW Inc. is dedicated to the art of dance and to enriching the cultural life of our community. We support diversity and provide increased opportunity to persons of all ages and cultures who would not normally enjoy the prospect of participating in a professionally run dance company.Through our program of education and outreach, our successes can be related to our working in partnership or collaboration with other dance companies, professional entities in the related arts, and those in the broadcast or journalism media in order to broaden the base of understanding and to provide opportunity where no opportunity previously existed.Through dance and related arts, citizens grow personally, build character, and achieve an understanding of the teamwork required to attain the perfection necessary to stage a performance that will leave their neighbors and friends amazed and in conversation for months afterwards</p>		</div>
