The non-profit 501 (c)(3)Company is growing rapidly, building on its reputation for excellent instruction and performance. City Ballet of Cleveland, formerly Cleveland City Dance Company intends to become a significant player in the market of performance arts in Cleveland and Northeast Ohio. An example includes the Company receiving grants from both the Cuyahoga Arts & Culture and Ohio Arts Council to build and original production, "The Uniquely Cleveland Nutcracker" with company dancers and several local guest artists in 2013-2014.
