The American Ballet’s Junior Council had a private cocktail party at the Forbes Galleries (62 5th Ave NYC 10011 (212) 206-5548). The Junior Council, a group of young professionals between the age of twenty-one and forty, dedicate themselves to the ballet through the celebration of its performances. They also serve as a base of support that will further the American Ballet Theatre in the future through serving as a liaison between the artistic community and the next generation of young professionals.  Through their efforts, they strengthen the arts and contribute to its continued success in the years to come.
