Spectrum: A
Successful Evening!
Spectrum: An Evening of New Works
was an evening of fabulous dance and successful
fundraising! On February 5, The Georgia Ballet’s
annual event to showcase new works by emerging and
established regional choreographers was held at the
Murray
Arts Center
at Mount Paran Christian
School.
Five of the choreographers were dancers from The
Georgia Ballet's own professional ensemble. We
welcomed new choreographers Lauri Worrill-Biggs and
Jennifer Kitchens. Veteran Spectrum choreographers
Janusz Mazon, Lynne Brague and Kristy Nilsson returned
to make new works on the company.
The evening included a silent
auction, which, thanks to generous contributions from
area businesses, raised funds for the Ballet’s
programming; including its professional performance
series, its dance training and its Arts In Educational
outreach programs.
The auction included a diamond pendant from D.
Geller & Sons, AirTran tickets, two vacation homes, a
Bi-plane Adventures ride, a North Georgia Canopy
zip-line tours, tickets to sports and arts events,
original art work, flowers from K Mike Whittle Designs,
overnight accommodations, restaurant gift cards, and
much, much more. The Ballet is indebted to the Murray
Arts
Center for its support of
the event, to Susan Carter for catering and to all the
volunteers who helped make the evening a success -
particularly the Silent Auction Co-Chairs, Claire
Francis and Suzanne Dunmire.
Our sincere thanks to everyone who donated,
volunteered and participated in the event!
