Ballet Theatre of Maryland, the state's premier professional ballet company, invites you to join us in welcoming our audience - your potential customers - to BTM performances, special events, and outreach. Download our sponsorship brochure which outlines sponsorship's many benefits.
Ballet Theatre of Maryland begins what promises to be the most-attended ballet season of our history. We are pleased to offer opportunities to sponsor BTM's outstanding performances. Sponsorship is a unique opportunity for your company to be seen in its best light – as a community leader and supporter of artistic excellence.
Targeted toward families and the community, BTM special events are designed to create a memorable experience that allows our patrons to meet BTM dancers one to one. Our events may offer a preview of performances to come, may immediately follow a dance performance, may be an opportunity to reach underserved audiences, or may be a fundraising event that complements the theme of our fall or spring performances.
Education is an essential element of BTM’s mission. You may be familiar with BTM’s school of dance and our family- friendly performances, but those make up only a third of our impact on children. BTM dancers perform at schools throughout the state, school children attend our special mini-shows, and we reach out to under-served children in the community through non-profits such as the Casey Cares and CASA and hold events that celebrate, educate, and inspire. This year we are collaborating with Head Start in our new Tiny Toes in the Studio program, which develops new knowledge, skills and awareness about dance, music, and theater that children and their teachers integrate into core skills in pre-reading, social sciences and math. We invite you to join us in supporting our mission to share the art of classical dance with the next generation. We look forward to working with you to find the best fit for sponsorship that puts your business in the spotlight. Please contact us to find out how your business can shine with us. For more information, contact the BTM Office at 410-224-5644 or btmmgr@balletmaryland.org.
