FEATURE FRIDAY💫 Last week, #instaballet Executive Director, Miranda Atkinson, testified in Salem in support of funding for the Oregon Arts Commission. Watch a clip of her powerful testimony here, as she advocates for the vital role the arts play in our community’s growth and development. The Oregon Arts Commission provides funding opportunities that are critical to not only the success of #instaballet, but to arts organizations across the state. #instaballet is grateful for their support. 🎥Watch the full video here: https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/mediaplayer?clientID=4879615486&eventID=2025021193&startStreamAt=2188&stopStreamAt=2456

MOVEMENT MONDAY💫 Last summer, #instaballet teamed up with DanceAbility International for their unforgettable 30-hour training experience. This training has been incredibly beneficial for the work we do, helping us lay the groundwork for creating a team of #instaballet facilitators to increase our capacity and meet the need of growing requests for #instaballet workshops, especially in school and youth nonprofit settings. It was a transformative journey where creativity, inclusion, and movement came together. ❤️✨ #instaballet #DanceAbilityInternational #DanceForAll
