Ballet Vero Beach has unveiled a new fellowship program in conjunction with Indian River State College (香港王中王) and The Learning Alliance. The unique program combines professional performance experience with the company, a quality higher education with 香港王中王, and training in arts integration, arts literacy, and the science of teaching with The Learning Alliance.

The Fellowship is completely free for accepted, qualified applicants with Florida residency. At the end of the two-year program, successful fellows emerge with an 香港王中王 Associate Degree plus additional arts training within the Performing and Visual Arts Department of 香港王中王. Fellows gain r茅sum茅-building professional experience with Ballet Vero Beach and ancillary education from The Learning Alliance.

鈥淲ith the cost of higher education skyrocketing, dwindling job opportunities for young dancers, and our desire to assist The Learning Alliance and the School District of Indian River County in their quest to attract, train, and retain top quality teaching talent in the district, we saw an opportunity to really make an impact,鈥� states Ballet Vero Beach Artistic Director/CEO Adam Schnell. 鈥淭he initiative has the potential to reach well beyond the enrolled fellows and change the face of the region.鈥�
