Ballet Wolcott began in the fall of 2007 as a collaboration between Helene Nilsen, Brandy Ofciarcik-Perez, and Avi Waring. All three wanted to offer affordable, high quality dance education in the rural setting of Wolcott. The primary aim of Ballet Wolcott is to foster healthy development and creativity in our students by providing them with quality dance education and the opportunity to become involved in the creative process in a nurturing environment. Through the Youth Company, Ballet Wolcott continues to offer creativity and community through dance. This year, Ballet Wolcott has become a non-profit organization, making it possible for us to offer more to our communities.
