Core Values
TWB's Core Values
TWB’s Commitment to Our Community
At The Washington Ballet, we are striving to center belonging as the foundation for our approach to artistic experiences on the stage, education of ballet, community engagement, and internal work culture. We are committed to creating a culture that prioritizes presenting artists & points of view that better reflect the dynamism of DC. Through our community partnerships and campus locations, we are intentional about bringing opportunities to communities throughout the DMV.
Cognizant of the historical context of the art form and The Washington Ballet’s place in this ever-evolving space, we turn a critical lens on our organization to evaluate practices, policies, and prejudgments as we forge an intentional path forward.
We recognize that this work is not a one-time effort but a continual process that requires intentionality in all aspects of our art and daily work. As an organization, we are dedicated to creating an environment that values and establishes a deep connection and sense of community for all who engage with us. We weave these core values into everything we do and will continue to do so in pursuit of our mission at The Washington Ballet.
