Description
Goldsboro Ballet is a non-profit dance organization whose mission is to produce quality ballet performances for the Goldsboro-Wayne County area. We are inclusive of any ballet student in the area, or the counties surrounding Wayne County, committed to the art of ballet. We were conceived in 1982 as Goldsboro Civic Ballet, with an Advisory Board of 10 interested citizens. We became a member of the Arts Council of Wayne County in 1985, enjoying services from them, such as publicizing our upcoming programs, mail-outs, and sharing in the promotion of the arts in Wayne County. In 1997, we renamed our company Goldsboro Ballet because of the strength shown in our performances. Greensboro Ballet adopted us as an upcoming Ballet Company in 1992. We have enjoyed Maryhelen Mayfield, Director, meeting with our board, sharing choreography and ballets with us, and helping us in assundry of ways.
Memberships include: The Director Graduating from The Arts Institute, UNC-Chapel Hill, Wayne County Chamber of Commerce, Arts Council of Wayne County, N.C. Arts Council, N.C. Dance Alliance, N.C. Center for Nonprofit Organizations.
