How you help | Back in 1972, Nevada Ballet Theatre started out with a corps of local professional dancers who volunteered their time and talent to promote ballet in Las Vegas. Over 40 years later, we continue to grow because of the talents and personal sacrifices of our volunteers. |

In 1980, the Company expanded its community reach by sharing the art form of dance with students in underserved populations within Clark County. In 1993, it established Future Dance in order to provide free in-school dance instruction and scholarship opportunities to students in need. With all of its Education and Outreach initiatives combined, NBT successfully reaches over 20,000 students a year through these life-changing programs. |
