The Atlanta Ballet hosted the Black & White Ball at the St. Regis in Buckhead. The event raised over $500,000 to support Artistic Director Gennadi Nedvigin’s vision and the Centre for Dance Education’s community engagement programs. The gala was co-chaired by Kimberlyn Daniel and Yelena Epova, with honorary co-chairs Nigel Ferguson and Preston Wilson, Jr.  The evening offered beautiful performances from the ballet, a drawing and live auction, and dancing with live music by The New Royals and DJ Quasi.
