This research analyzes the structures of support for ballet in Salt Lake City, Utah, looking specifically at how people perceive, present, and participate in ballet. This research challenges the idea that ballet is an “art for art’s sake” dance form and shows how ballet can nurture communities. Ultimately, I show that it is important to consider how communities value the arts, human expression, and human bodies, because these elements influence support for ballet.
