Young Patrons Circle
Join a special group of NYCB supporters with exclusive opportunities to connect with the Company and other young patrons.
New York City Ballet’s Young Patrons Circle is a community of supporters ages 21-40 who are interested in establishing a deeper connection with the Company’s mission and ongoing commitment to expand NYCB’s audience to the widest possible public.
YPC strives to cultivate the next generation of ballet patrons through advocacy and unique events that engage future audiences, and provides support to NYCB’s programs on and off stage. Young Patrons enjoy benefits and invites curated to accommodate a young professional's schedule while still immersing them in the world of NYCB.
