Fermata Ballet Collective, Inc

Diversifying ballet and creating collaborative experiences: FBC was founded in June 2020 in Eugene, Oregon during the global pandemic and the societal movements that reignited the awareness of persistent racism within eurocentric structures. During this pause and shift in regular arts programming, FBC acted as a refuge for dancers who found their careers and projects on hold, providing opportunities to explore dance art in a respectful manner with a focus on inclusivity. FBC’s ongoing mission is to diversify ballet in creating renewed paths within the dance experience and create collaborative performance opportunities with the goal to safely house artists by acknowledging identity, personal experience, while creating enriching and inclusive programming, workshops, and events for dancers and the community. Deviating from deeply held norms within traditional ballet environments, FBC will cultivate a collaborative approach with an egalitarian structure, foster an environment of inclusivity, and will not condone discrimination against any individual regarding race, color, ethnicity, nation origin, sex, gender, sexual orientation, pregnancy, appearance, religion, age, or ability or other protected classes.
