AMHERST BALLET’S GUILD: The Guild consists of the parents of all the Lower and Upper School students. The Guild members bring their expertise and enthusiasm to the assistance of Amherst Ballet and its dancers and allow this nonprofit entity to reach beyond its limited budget. Every task the Guild accomplishes permits AB to dedicate resources to keeping tuitions reasonable, improving our performances and maintaining our building. Thank you Guild members! Traditionally Guild members have helped with the wrapping paper fundraiser, updated our website (www.amherstballet.org), provided graphic design for publicity materials, and helped write and prepare our Newsletter, "Behind the Scenes", for mailing! As our ambitious productions this year approach, many more Guild members will be called upon. We will need assistance with publicity and promotion, costume construction and transport, boutique and food salespeople, bakers and (as always) fundraising. Notice of future Guild meetings will be sent via email and posted on AB bulletin boards. Many heartfelt thanks to the Guild for assistance to AB and its dancers.
