Artsemerson
ArtsEmerson is the professional presenting and producing organization of the Office of the Arts at Emerson College. Founded in 2010 by Robert J. Orchard, the year the US Census confirmed there was no single cultural majority in Boston, we committed to building a cultural institution that reflects the diversity of our city. We operate from the core belief that the arts are for everyone. By “putting the world on stage” ArtsEmerson quickly established a reputation for presenting outstanding work from around the globe — work that emanates from the language of theater, yet pushes the boundaries between theater, dance, music, and media arts. And by bringing diverse programming to neighborhoods all over the city, we have become an integral part of Boston’s efforts to transform our bitter history of segregation into a resilient legacy of equity and unity in diversity. ArtsEmerson’s first seasons focused on building a world-class cultural institution, raising awareness of our existence, and forging a reputation for artistic excellence. ArtsEmerson was first named “Boston’s Best Theater” by Boston Magazine following its 2012/13 season. By December of 2013, WBUR critic Ed Siegel cited ArtsEmerson in his annual “Best of” round-up, saying: “In four short years they have established ArtsEmerson as one of the most important cultural institutions in New England.” In 2013 we expanded our focus, through a variety of civic engagement activities, setting out to become an effective partner in our city’s efforts to promote social cohesion. When naming ArtsEmerson “Boston’s Best Theater” again in 2015, Boston Magazine wrote, “Most impressive, ArtsEmerson realizes its global vision while remaining audience-focused and community-centric.” ArtsEmerson is currently led by Executive Director David C. Howse.

Ballet 5 8
In 2012, Julianna Rubio Slager and Amy Kozol Sanderson founded Ballet 5:8. As leading companies cycled through the same classic works, they saw this beautiful art form becoming stagnant and in danger of missing the next generation. They founded Ballet 5:8 to tell stories of the 21st century while retaining the classic beauty of ballet. For Ballet 5:8, faith is an important aspect of meaningful storytelling. Drawing from inspiration from Christian belief, each Ballet 5:8 performance wrestles with themes that portray both the darkness and hope of life in the modern context. The School of Ballet 5:8 extends the company's mission to over 400 students each year at campuses in Orland Park and Chicago (Beverly), IL. The school includes a nationally-recognized classical ballet training program, a range of recreational dance classes for all ages and levels of ability. Ballet 5:8 is passionate about body-positive, kind, scientific training that benefits the individual dancer. It is our honor to invest in our local communities through accessible, high-quality dance education.

The Mission of Ballet Lubbock is to changes lives. As a pre-professional dance school, we enchance our community through premier dance training, performances and outreach. We envision an inclusive community transformed by art, embracing dance as an enriching and integral part of life. At the heart of Ballet Lubbock’s mission and guiding principles is the School, which operates from September through May. Our classical ballet curriculum and stirring performances featuring both local and world-renowned artists are parallel to none in our region. Each December the Ballet presents The Nutcracker, a beloved and popular holiday production that attracts audiences of all ages. Each April, a Spring Performance takes place, and features either works of mixed repertoire or standard ballet repertoire. Therefore, we aggressively seek to make our programs known and available to all citizens of the South Plains. Our free and subsidized dance classes at various community centers, and the over of scholarships granted each year break down financial barriers. We host classes for students battling autism since art has a profound impact on us all. The donation of over 3,500 performance tickets including special performances for LISD and area schools each year ensures dance excites all walks of life. We work every day to be a relevant and integral part of the greater Lubbock area’s cultural community. When students train at our school, they not only learn the technique of dance, but they are educated in the values of creativity, discipline, focus, and commitment. Thus, our greatest successes occur off the stage. We measure our success not only by the number or students that walk through our door, but by the diversity of our student population, and the number of collaborations and relationships we can sustain. We want to bring the power of art to all citizens of the South Plains.
