A planned gift is one of the most meaningful ways to provide long-term financial stability and ensure Pacific Northwest Ballet will thrive for generations to come. Planned gifts support all areas of the organization from new repertoire and touring opportunities to education initiatives and scholarships for PNB School students. Many forms of planned giving offer tax advantages, and all planned gift donors are welcomed into our Révérence Society.
Révérence Society
Signaling the end of a ballet class or performance, a révérence is an elaborate curtsey or bow performed by a dancer to show their respectful admiration for the instructor, accompanist, or audience. As our way of showing respect and gratitude to those generous donors who remember PNB in their estate plans, we have formed the Révérence Society. We know that in making these gifts, donors have found a place in their final arrangements for PNB alongside family, friends, and other loved ones – and for this, we are deeply grateful.
Révérence Society members receive the following behind-the-scenes invitations:
- Annual Révérence Society Event & Performance
- One Studio Rehearsal
- Opening Night dinners (excludes cost of dinner)
- Dress Rehearsals
- PNB Annual Meeting
- Recognition in PNB’s performance program
We invite you to consider your own legacy gift and to become a Révérence Society member through any of the ways to give listed below. If you have already included Pacific Northwest Ballet in your estate plan, please let us know. It would be our great pleasure to welcome you to the Révérence Society so you may start enjoying member benefits.
