After a year of sheltering in place, we could all use a little Uplift. Join us for a night of celebration, see the premiere of our new dance film, In Plain Sight, choreographed by OBC dancer Samantha Bell, and help to support our programs in the community and schools. Tickets available at the Patron and Arts Supporter levels.

All event sponsors and Arts Supporter ticket holders are invited to a special VIP event just before the Gala.

Thanks to our Gala Sponsors

Oakland Ballet Company is a non-profit, performing arts organization that reflects the diversity of Oakland and the greater East Bay. Under the Direction of Graham Lustig since 2010, OBC is an Isadora Duncan award-winning dance organization comprised of a diverse professional performing company, a comprehensive educational program, and an academy. Our vision is much larger than our name might imply. Our reach is wider than Oakland – spanning much of the East Bay. While we embrace classical ballet at our core, OBC’s programs employ many dance styles, musical genres, and collaborations with a diverse roster of local artists.
