Sponsor A Costume- Spot it on stage!
|
We are proud to say that our costumes and props were all designed and handcrafted by a variety of Vermonters! In summer 2016, we discovered and worked with Emily Reynolds of Barre Town, VT to design and sew several of our costumes. This year she is back- with a vision that will leave audiences experiencing the wonder and beauty of nature's creation's transformed into tulle, beads, brocade, satin, velvet and lace.
Each year, we upgrade our costumes and we need your help! We would love to invite our supporters to consider sponsoring a costume! All sponsors will be recognized in our playbill as the costume sponsor. What could possibly be a more concrete way to help make this show a reality? To sponsor a costume:

"I'm so excited to be returning to the Farm to Ballet Project for A 4th season of costume creation. It's such A fun and challenging Project, So much costume work is altering and styling but here everything is handmade and created solely for this project. I'm always learning new techniques and more about construction as the work continues."-Emily Reynolds |
