You are invited to join a dynamic network of people who support the work of BalletLab and the artistic vision of choreographer and performance maker, Phillip Adams. BalletLab creates resonant and compelling contemporary performances which provide a transformative experience for the audience, the art form and the performer. We aim to be recognised as a commanding force amongst Australian contemporary dance companies, consistently challenging the form and presentation of contemporary dance. Help us to achieve our goals through a once-off donation or annual giving on a regular basis, providing vital assistance towards the company's performances, touring and nurturing of Australian dance. All donations are fully tax deductible and if you wish, can be directed to specific projects including new works, our education program, support for internships, international tours and residencies.
In 2011, our priority project is the finalisation of Aviary, being made in association with The Australian Ballet and due for premiere in late 2011. Our inaugural Emerging Choreographic commission will commence early 2012.
All donations of $2.00 or more are fully tax-deductible and gratefully accepted at all levels. Donations over $250 are supported through our Patron program, with acknowledgement on BalletLab's website and in our Annual Report at your discretion. There are opportunities for a closer involvement with the company throughout the year. Please call us to discuss how you can be involved.
BalletLab Patron offers our donors four levels of giving. We invite you to support our company via the notion of metaphorical slippers: eclectic, divine and unique creations to support all the possibilities that BalletLab has to offer artistically.
Velvet Fur - From $250 to $2499
Rich in nature with a luxurious edge, classically stylish and warm, yet requiring a commitment to contemporary dance that is in keeping with the hunter mentality of survival of the fittest.
Silk Satin - From $2500 to $9999
Like classic ballet slippers, but with an exotic twist, Silk Satin comes in a range of bespoke colours and detailing designed to stimulate and pique the interest of the observer.
Jewel Encrusted From $10,000 to $24,999
Limited edition, individually unique and beautifully crafted by hand, these draw breath in the observer and incite lust through the flash of their brilliant, refracted light.
The Isabella - Diamonds and Pearls embedded in gold $25,000 +
Can a slipper embody the exalted vision of a 15th century Spanish altar made from the gold of the old world brought into the new? And what secrets are contained within?
How will the funds be used?
All funds go directly to our projects including artist salaries, touring costs and to take up residency opportunities. For instance, artist salaries represent approximately 60% of our project costs. Your donation is a highly valued contribution to our programs and ensures their viability.
Are donations tax deductible?
Yes. All donations over $2.00 are fully tax deductible.
Will I receive a receipt for my donation?
