BARRE KC – Black & White Soiree

More than 200 Ballet supporters gathered for BARRE KC’s annual Black & White Soiree on April 13th at Boulevard Brewing Company. BARRE KC is the premier organization for young adults interested in supporting the Kansas City Ballet. Proceeds from the event help fund 16 Reach Out And Dance (R.O.A.D.) Scholarship Schools. R.O.A.D. combines dance with academics (along with live music) to make a fun environment for learning. This Kansas City Ballet program reaches more than 800 children in the Kansas City Public School District and the Turner Unified School District. Each school receives a 12-week dance residency for all third grade students.
