Avalon School of Ballet

The Avalon Ballet School, founding in 1901, is one of the wizarding world's greatest centers of classical ballet training. Avalon Ballet Company has an annual performance of a single ballet of the Director's choosing, which runs from June until August, and a winter performance as well, running through most of December and into January.

The Avalon Ballet Endowment Foundation was established in 1910 as a separate nonprofit public benefit corporation for the purpose of holding and managing endowment funds for the benefit of the Avalon Ballet Association. It seeks to provide the Ballet with a reliable source of support while protecting its investments against inflation and wide swings in the capital markets. The Foundation provides just over ninety percent of the school's core operating budget. The foundation is controlled by a Board of Directors.
