MBC Events & Fundraisers

Mankato Ballet Company does several annual events fundraisers to help support our students, staff, facility and community.

Events are free to the public and help us work and engage with community members.  These can be mini performances, studio sponsored games and more.

These fundraisers also help offset costs of performances and production expenses.  Because MBC owns all its own costumes to help keep costs down to individual students we use these fundraisers to assist MBC in maintaining these costumes.

These are optional fundraisers that are easy to participate in and we are grateful for all who join in helping support our studio!
