THE VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE Supporting the National Ballet of Canada
We Are The Volunteer Committee
W W
Since 1951, we have been passionately supporting the National Ballet of Canada.
what we do

Did you know that volunteers facilitated the 1951 establishment of The National Ballet of Canada?  Since then, volunteers have been there to do what they can to advance and support the art of classical ballet – you name it, we’ve done it!

Over time, our activities have evolved. Currently, most of our efforts are focused on the Ballet Boutique, which operates in the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts in Toronto, home of The National Ballet of Canada. Occasionally, the Boutique goes “on tour”, when circumstances permit.

The primary Boutique is on the main floor of the Four Seasons Centre in Toronto, in operation only during regular performances – November, December (Nutcracker), March and June.  A smaller kiosk on the 3rd Ring offers selected  merchandise, and dancers sign posters and programs there during most intermissions.

Due to the restrictions posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, the suspension of live performances and the temporary closure of the Four Seasons Centre, we have launched our Online Boutique! Our Online Boutique features a selection of our bestselling and most requested items from our physical store. Shop from the comfort of your home for all your favourite ballet-related merchandise!

Please visit us at Shop.Ballet.ca.

The Ballet Boutique is entirely volunteer run.  This includes management, buyers, merchandising, accounting, marketing and, of course, the cheerful and helpful sales staff.  Do visit the Ballet Boutique during a performance, and ensure that your National Ballet of Canada experience is complete.
