JOIN BALLET IDAHO ’ S 2015 SEASON
OutBoise . com | Issue 1.2 | November 2014
Two years ago , before the first issue of OutBoise Magazine debuted , we set out to find local LGBT-friendly businesses . We sent out countless emails , and made a large number of phone calls , trying to attract businesses and organizations in an effort to promote themselves , and build a relationship with our magazine and the community .
The first one to answer that call , was Ballet Idaho . We sat down with Meredith Stead , Marketing Director for their organization at a meeting nearly two months before our first issue debuted . While we had some information available at the time , our first issue wasn ’ t even ready yet . In fact , what eventually became our first issue looked very different from what was debuted .
Meredith ’ s first response to our proposal was :
“ Why doesn ’ t Boise already have THIS ?”
In the months that followed , Ballet Idaho served as our very first advertiser . Not to provide us a source of income , but to show the local LGBT community that there was a fantastic organization whose mission is to promote classical and contemporary ballet by encouraging artists to greatness and inspiring the public to value the performing arts . They enrich our community through quality performances , disciplined training , dance outreach , and education .
Their organization is very LGBTfriendly , and accept any talented individuals , regardless of identity or orientation to perform with them .
