NuArts Foundation is an independent, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization committed to extending the dreams of young men in ballet. We promote the proliferation of ballet through education and providing opportunities for young men interested in pursuing the art. Our hope is to extend the vitality of that vision into the future, through performance, creation, preservation and education.
As part of our mission, we are funding DANSEUR, a documentary film about the stereotypes and challenges that young men face in ballet. LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR CURRENT FILM>>>
In our ongoing mission to offer opportunities to young men wishing to dance, NuArts Foundation Inc. will direct donations to educational programs that encourage boys to learn ballet as well as offer financial assistance to young men without the means.
Unfortunately, too many young men are not supported in their pursuit of ballet.

There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost.
