Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is wrapping up—a time to honor the rich cultures, stories, and contributions of AAPI communities that continue to shape the world of dance and beyond. At NPB, we celebrate the artists and families that make up the vibrant fabric of our shared community.
We recognize that ballet grows stronger when it reflects the world around it. To our dancers and audiences of Asian and Pacific Islander descent: your stories, artistry, and presence are essential to the beauty and future of ballet.
