If so, then please consider advertising in our upcoming souvenir program for The Nutcracker!
It is not only a personal investment, but also an investment in the future and success of dance in our community. As a non-profit organization, SBC generates its annual revenue through ticket sales, personal giving, corporate funding, grants and our season program/adbook.
The funds raised through this campaign are immediately invested in the education and training of our dancers who in turn dedicate their time to entertaining and educating the community at large.
