Festival Ballet RI
The Festival Ballet Company in Rhode
Island is headed by Mr. Mihailo Djuric. He
realized many of his goals during the first
three years of his tenure, and today the
company performs locally and tours
throughout New England.
The Center for Dance Education
provides comprehensive training for students
ages three through adult, giving all
students the opportunity to perform.
By
successfully auditioning for the Junior
Company, advanced ballet students
have the
opportunity to appear with the professional
company dancers and
guest artists in major
productions. The reputation of the
professional company has become well
respected, and the Center for Dance
Education has become the foundation for the
development of aspiring dance professionals
in Rhode Island.

To advance the company and school even
further, the Board of Trustees recognized
the need to have new studio space, and
purchased a building in Providence in June
2001. Renovations, completed in September
2001, transformed the space into
state-of-the-art studios for the dancers and
students.
Additional office and meeting
space will enable the administrative staff
to work more effectively and productively,
allow for an expansion of the staff to
develop a better educational outreach
program, and support the artistic efforts of
the company and school.
The Festival Ballet Providence Center for
Dance Education is recognized in Rhode
Island as the premier school for young and
aspiring classical ballet dancers.
