Ballet Austin’s Annual FREE Day of Dance – Sunday, August 25, 2024
Alvin Ailey wrote, “Dance is for everybody. I believe that the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people.”
Since 2008, COME DANCE, Ballet Austin’s FREE Day of Dance has been our gift back to our community; your day to experience the JOY of dance!
We open our doors on August 25, 2024 and invite you to come dance FREE! DANCE for the JOY of it! No experience necessary!
The scientific evidence is in. Dance is a great workout, boosts mood, is good for your mental health, and is fun! So Come Dance!

Food Drive at Come Dance 2024
Come Dance is a FREE event. But please support our Food Drive and bring a non-perishable food item when you come dance!
Ballet Austin is a community partner with Black Women in Business, helping to collect food for their Community Impact Food Drive. Their reach is wide, serving people who live on the margins and often fall through the cracks of other service programs. Bring a non-perishable food item when you come to class on 8/25! We are hoping to gather thousands of non-perishable food items again this year. THANK YOU!
