BOSTON BALLET BALL OF ENCHANTMENT

Glitter and dance were among the highlights at the Boston Ballet’s Ball of Enchantment. The black tie event, inspired by the ballet’s upcoming performances of Marius Petipa’s The Sleeping Beauty, featured a cocktail hour, fine dining by Max Ultimate Food, live auctions, and performances by Boston Ballet, capped off by music and a fabulous afterparty. Co-chaired by Hannah Grove and Alison Quirk, the evening raised $1.8 million for Boston Ballet and its community programs. The Paddle Auction supported programs that reach more than 4,000 children and adults through nationally recognized programs such as Citydance and Adaptive Dance. The night’s success was as a ringing endorsement of a world-class ballet company that is vital to Boston and beyond.
