The Women's Board
Founded in 2002, the Women's Board advances the activities and prominence of The Joffrey Ballet as a leading cultural and educational institution. Members embrace the spirit of philanthropy and express their personal passion for the Joffrey through advocacy and support. The Women's Board hosts an annual Luncheon, as well as a Spring Gala, which raises more than $1 million for the Joffrey each year. Members also spearhead the Nutcracker Costume Fund and promote the Joffrey's Community Engagement programs.
Membership on the Women's Board is by invitation only. Please contact Courtney Tan, Women's Board Coordinator, at ctan [at] joffrey [dot] org with any questions you may have about the Women's Board.
