Thank you for your support of SAB Ball: Step Into Our Shoes!
More than 1,000 guests joined us for a spectacular evening celebrating our extraordinary students, while coming together in support of the School’s mission. The 2026 SAB Ball honored the Fendi Family and the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation.
With your generosity, we raised over $1 million, sustaining our commitment to excellence at every level—from scholarships and our world-class teachers to state-of-the-art studios, wellness programs, and the residence hall that nurture the next generation of dance artists. Our students, faculty, and staff are deeply grateful for your support of our vision for a flourishing ballet field.
