Thank You to ABT Donors

American Ballet Theatre expresses tremendous gratitude to the individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies whose contributions support the Company’s dancers, productions, and education and training programs.

Special acknowledgement to:

Avery and Andrew F. Barth for their sponsorship of the Corps de Ballet in memory of Laima and Rudolph Barth and in recognition of former ABT Corps dancer Carmen Barth Fox.

ABT is supported, in part, with public funds from the National Endowment for the Arts; the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of The Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature; and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.

Listing contributions as of December 7, 2023
