Over 10 years of creating together, and it’s still just as special every time. πŸ’› Last week, we had the absolute pleasure of joining the students at Bridgeway House for another #instaballet workshop, this time in their new space! It is always such a treat to create alongside these incredible students. The joy, imagination, and connection they bring to each workshop make every visit so meaningful. We feel lucky to have shared in this partnership for over a decade and look forward to many more years of creating together! A special thank you to Chris Pietsch for capturing the magic and creating this lovely video! ✨ #BridgewayHouse #InclusiveArts #ArtsForAll

We’re thrilled to see #instaballet featured on KVAL News! ❀️ For more than 10 years, we’ve been creating with our friends at Bridgeway House, sharing the joy of movement, creativity, and dance with children with autism and related disabilities. Our latest workshop was another wonderful opportunity to connect through movement, build confidence, and create something together. A special thank you to Kathryn Young at KVAL for taking the time to share our story and highlight the impact of this longstanding partnership. We’re also incredibly grateful to PeaceHealth for sponsoring this workshop and helping make experiences like this possible. We’re proud of the relationships we’ve built over the years and grateful for the opportunity to keep creating and dancing together. Here’s to many more years!

SO excited to be creating with @bridgewayhouse this morning! πŸ€—β€οΈ Huge thank you to @peacehealth for sponsoring this event.
We’re so excited to bring this collaboration back for one night only at tomorrow’s @shopstvinnies fundraiser! ✨ Created during September’s First Friday ArtWalk at @capitellowines around the theme “Reclaim”, this project celebrates the creativity and possibility of giving pre-loved pieces a new life. Inspired by and featuring St. Vinnie’s UpSmart collection, it’s been such a fun way to bring our community together through art, creativity, and a shared commitment to supporting one another. We’re so grateful to everyone who helped bring this collaboration to life, and we can’t wait to see it again at An Evening to Envision, St. Vincent de Paul’s Denim & Diamonds gala! πŸ’Ž

This is your sign to join the #instaballet Board of Directors 😌 We’re looking for community members who want to help us expand opportunities for people throughout Lane County to access the arts, participate creatively, and experience the joy of making something together. Our new five-year strategic plan focuses on four priorities: Organizational Resilience & Capacity, Equitable Access to Offerings, a Diversified Revenue Model, and a Sharpened Brand Identity. If you have experience in nonprofit leadership, organizational development, fundraising, accessibility, education, marketing, the arts, dance, or other areas that could help us advance those priorities, join us! We’d be excited to have you help guide the next chapter of #instaballet. Above all, we need people who are willing to show up, give some of their time, and help take responsibility for the future of the organization. Previous board experience and specific professional credentials are not required. Board members attend a monthly one-hour meeting, serve on committees, and contribute about five hours per month to governance, fundraising, outreach, or strategic work. If you care about the work and have time and energy to contribute, we encourage you to apply. Interested? Head to instaballet.org/get-involved to learn more and apply! We’d love to hear from you. πŸ€—

πŸŽ‰ We have MORE exciting news to celebrate! Thank you to the Oregon Cultural Trust for awarding #instaballet $15,055 to support our Life Skills Outreach Collaboration with Lane Education Service District! πŸ’œ This funding will help us bring 10 free, onsite dance workshops to students with disabilities in Eugene-Springfield Life Skills classrooms. Lane Education Service District has asked for more #instaballet as public school budget cuts continue to limit enrichment opportunities for students. We’re so excited to be able to meet that need and bring more movement, creativity, and connection into the classroom. Each workshop is co-designed with Lane Education Service District and supported onsite by occupational therapists, physical therapists, ASL interpreters, and educational assistants to make the experience accessible and meaningful for every student. We’re so grateful to the Oregon Cultural Trust for helping make this work possible and for investing in access to the arts for these students in our community. ✨
Okay, but why does the trademark actually matter? πŸ€”

For us, it’s about more than protecting a name. #instaballet has become its own thing: a unique approach to dance, creativity, and community that we’ve spent years building.

The trade
Okay, but why does the trademark actually matter? πŸ€” For us, it’s about more than protecting a name. #instaballet has become its own thing: a unique approach to dance, creativity, and community that we’ve spent years building. The trademark gives us a stronger foundation as we grow and helps protect the identity we’ve created along the way. And honestly, it’s also a pretty exciting sign of what’s ahead. We’re looking at new programs, new partnerships, and new ways to bring #instaballet to more people. ☺️ Swipe through for a little more on why this milestone matters. ❀️
