Sarasota Cuban Ballet School Raises the Barre

The Giving Coast

According to SCBS co-founder Ariel Serrano, “If you’ve been to our performances you know that our dancers are technically pre-professionals, but are indistinguishable from professionals in our community and beyond. We’re not the only ones who think so. Dancers who trained with us are now with major companies in the UK and the US. Dancers who move on to professional companies come back to visit, to perform, and to mentor those who follow them—and you, the audience, get to revel in their achievements. One of those dancers is Alexandra Burman, who now dances professionally with the Birmingham Royal Ballet in the UK.  Please help us continue our precious work by donating generously on April 28-29. Donations between $25 and $100 will be matched dollar for dollar by The Patterson Foundation.  Supporters have generously pledged $10,000 to match donations over $100. All donations are tax deductible.
