Miami City Ballet hosted an exclusive members-only Meet and Greet cocktail event for upper level Artist’s Circle donors, all 50 MCB dancers, and Artistic Director Lourdes Lopez. Sponsored by Frank & Gabriele Armstrong, the event was a champagne-filled soiree on the private balcony of MCB headquarters.
On Jan 18, 2015, Works & Process at the Guggenheim presented MIAMI CITY BALLET: JUSTIN PECK & SHEPARD FAIREY. Choreographer Justin Peck along with Miami City Ballet dancers and Artistic Director Lourdes Lopez, and street artist Shepard Fairey participated in Works & Process at the Guggenheim leading up to the Company’s March 27th world premiere of Heatscape.
The 2011-2012 season opens with Program I on October 21 at Adrienne Arsht Center! With a world premiere by Liam Scarlett, two full-length classics, and the return of Opus One Orchestra, this season promises to be one of the best in MCB history! We’d like to congratulate our newly promoted dancers and welcome new faces to the troupe for this very exciting season.
