HUDSON BALLET THEATRE'S COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION AND ACCESSIBILITY 

Hudson Ballet Theatre recognizes the longstanding inequities in professional dance that have limited representation and opportunity for BIPOC artists and other historically marginalized communities. We are committed to dismantling barriers to participation, expanding equitable opportunities, and fostering an environment where every artist, student, audience member, and community partner feels respected, valued, and empowered.

​

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience and express themselves through dance regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, socioeconomic status, nationality, cultural or religious background, military status, or education. We advance this commitment through inclusive artistic and organizational practices, accessible programming, financial assistance, sensory-friendly performances, community partnerships, and works that reflect a broad range of voices and lived experiences.

​

As artists, we recognize the unique ability of dance to foster empathy, challenge perspectives, and inspire meaningful dialogue. We are committed to continually learning, listening, and evolving so that Hudson Ballet Theatre remains a welcoming, accessible, and equitable organization where individuals of all backgrounds can participate, belong, and thrive.
