On Wednesday, May 22, 2019, San Francisco Ballet School launches its first annual Spring Festival. Formerly called Student Showcase, the SF Ballet School Spring Festival will include three nights of performances, a dinner on opening night, and new interactive activities and more opportunities to learn about ballet. Proceeds from the event will support over $1.5 million in scholarships and financial aid the School distributes each year so talented students, regardless of family circumstances, can have a chance to study dance.
