Alonzo King LINES Ballet

Alonzo King LINES Ballet is a celebrated contemporary ballet company that has been guided since 1982 by the unique artistic vision of Alonzo King. A Black-founded nonprofit based in San Francisco, we nurture dynamic artistry and the development of authentic, creative expression through dance. We are dedicated to exploring the possibilities of movement from a global perspective, and to renewing – and transcending – traditional ballet.

We share our vision of transformative, revelatory dance through performances and outreach activities worldwide. We also cultivate the gifts of developing dancers through Alonzo King LINES Dance Center and our Education Programs. Learn more at linesballet.org
