San Diego Civic Youth Ballet Spring Online Auction

This year, San Diego Civic Youth Ballet is excited to be taking part in an online auction from May 1st-20th. We are asking for your support by checking out the auction and supporting our organization by bidding on an item for yourself or as a gift. If you don't find a treasure for yourself, you are also able to donate directly to the organization through this site.

For almost 75 years, SDCYB has contributed to not only the wellbeing of every student who has passed through our studios, but also to becoming virtuous members of society. We thank you in advance for your support as we embark on the next 25 years!

San Diego Civic Youth Ballet stands by their mission to provide the youth of San Diego with an opportunity to study, understand and appreciate, through education and participation, the art of ballet, and to enrich the cultural life of the community. Students, including beginning students, students seeking avocational dance experience, students hoping to move into professional careers, and early-career professional dancers, learn the joy of ballet and associated life skills in all of our programming. Our constituency of staff, volunteers, patrons and donors also give so much time and dedication to support the contribution of such valuable influences to the community.

San Diego Civic Youth Ballet was founded in 1945 and has been the resident ballet school in Balboa Park ever since. In addition to offering high-quality, affordable, year-round training in the Casa del Prado studios, SDCYB produces three major productions at the Casa del Prado Theater each year: a full-length spring ballet, Fairy Tales in the Park each summer (which benefits the Scholarship Program) and the classic holiday production of The Nutcracker. There is also an annual Spring Showcase of the school and the SDCYB Performance Ensemble (which is comprised of the highest-level dancers) performs at special events throughout the community.
