Since 2015, the annual Evenings of Dance series has delighted audiences across Westchester from a studio theater in Port Chester to the Emelin Theatre in Mamaroneck, the Tarrytown Music Hall and now to ArtsWestchester’s Gallery in White Plains.
ABOUT CAROLE ALEXIS | CHOREOGRAPHER
Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres Carole Alexis was honored with the 2023 Artist Award by ArtsWestchester. A student of Maurice Béjart, Alexis’ choreographic work is rooted in classical ballet training and tradition while drawing upon influences as disparate as children’s games, island rituals, natural phenomena, and modern urban life.
ABOUT BALLET DES AMÉRIQUES
Ballet des Amériques has danced in nearly 200 productions throughout Westchester, the greater New York City area and overseas and is committed to developing inclusive dance audiences through choreography and performances of the highest quality. The company’s extensive and eclectic repertoire bears Carole Alexis’ distinctive signature and vision, reinvigorating “ballet” for new audiences and dance connoisseurs alike.
Ballet des Amériques is a grantee of ArtsWestchester with funding made possible by Westchester County government with the support of County Executive George Latimer.
The programs of Ballet des Amériques / Carole Alexis Ballet Theatre are also made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
