You’re invited!

Join us for Raise the Barre at the beautiful Cultural Center in Grand Rapids for an unforgettable evening of fun, art, and exciting surprises! Try your luck to win some luxury prize packages, sip on local beer and wine offerings, and enjoy the community of Deos Ballet fans, dancers, and the staff that make it all happen. The night ends in the ultimate 2025 dance party… so be sure to bring your dancin’ shoes!

Support Small, Win BIG!

How the fundraiser works:

There are MANY ways, big and small, to show your support for Deos (and most of the time, it’s by purchasing things you’d be buying anyways!)

• live auction

• vacations and experiences

• gift cards (gas cards, restaurants, anything you could imagine!)

• direct donations
