Dear Mayor Sidhu and Council Members,
The arts are an important part of any community, and for more than 20 years, Anaheim Ballet
has been a valued arts force and presence in Anaheim. Anaheim Ballet provides free
community-based after-school programming, workforce and recreational training, bus -in
presentations, lecture/demonstrations and concert performances and has been recognized
both locally and internationally as a point of pride to the City.
The Anaheim Cultural Arts Center (the current home of the Anaheim Ballet) is slated to be
demolished without plans for a new Cultural Arts Center or home for the Anaheim Ballet. If the
City demolishes this architecturally unique building, you will be removing the only Cultural Arts
Center in the City and displacing the City's treasured arts organization. It is best for the
community, and especially for our underserved youth, that Anaheim Ballet remains in its
current accessible location!
Please vote in support of the Cooperative Agreement with Anaheim Ballet. Thank you for your
consideration.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth De La Cruz
