Volunteers

We’re still in need of a number of parent volunteers—will you join our team? 

For Children’s Division, we’ve updated the online sign-up to spotlight some classes still in need of support. For Main Division, we particularly need help with Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday rehearsals. 

Remember, volunteers receive a free ticket to the performance of their choice. To sign up, click the link below (all three sign-ups can be accessed via tabs at the top of the page.)    

Summer Programs

It’s not too late to register for summer programs, but act quickly! We expect many of our sessions to sell out. If your chosen program or session reaches capacity, you’ll have the opportunity to register online for a wait list. For questions about summer programs, placement, or registration, please contact the Academy Administrative team at 513.562.1111 or cbacademy@cballet.org. We hope to see many of you in the studio this summer!
