As our 2024-2025 season continues, I am happy to share our winter
edition of Ovations Magazine with you. Our campus has been
brimming with excitement and activity, including the launch of our
new photography exhibition by the acclaimed photographer Pari
Dukovic. This collection features stunning images of the costumes
worn by New York City Ballet dancers. Dukovic photographed
numerous costumes on several dancers showcasing the collaboration
between various fashion designers and the celebrated ballet company.
The exhibition is open now through July 1. I invite you to stop in and
see it Monday through Saturday from 1pm-5pm or by appointment by
calling 561.651.4364.
This edition of Ovations shines the spotlight on all of you—who make
it possible for us to continue our mission. From performances and arts
education programs to special events, as you browse through these
pages, you will see the impact of your support to the Kravis Center and
our county.
Since our last edition, we’ve hosted the community at our Second
Annual Block Party, welcomed students from local schools to
participate in our Broadway Reach program, presented our Corporate
Partners Speaker Series and Lunch & Learn Series, honored our
generous donors in several special events and much more.
