With the City of Madison transitioning the Madison Square Center for the Arts from a community Arts center to the new City Hall building, we will lose our current Madison studios at the end of 2021. In light of this, Ballet Mississippi purchased property located at 1620 Mannsdale Rd in Madison and plans to create 4 state of the art studios, dressing rooms, a performance space, staff offices, and storage for sets and costumes. Ballet Mississippi launched the Développé Campaign to fund the development of the new facility that brings exciting opportunities to both our school and the community. This new facility will support Ballet Mississippi’s mission to enhance our state’s cultural life by providing quality performances, developing the artistic and technical proficiency of our students, and promoting an appreciation of dance through education, outreach and audience development.
