Be Innovative! the IE Blog

Everyone loves someone... I love the Ballet Theater of Des Moines

Late last year I was asked to be on the board of the Ballet Theater of Des Moines. I strongly believe in giving back to the community (and carry that belief through to InnovativEvents, too) so of course I said yes. What a great experience this has been! In addition to working with great people, both staff and other board members, I've really been able to see how dance affects our community. In these times of budget cuts, where every penny has to be inspected twice to make sure it’s being spent wisely, the arts are often seen as frivolous. But studies show, time and again, creative activities like dance, art and music go a long way to build self-esteem and strength of character. They can be lifelines.

Anyway, here’s the real purpose of this blog entry: I’d like to invite you to an event that benefits the Ballet Theater Des Moines, but even better, will be a great time! Whether you’re married, involved, or single, you’ll enjoy yourself at “Everybody Loves Somebody” Valentine’s event. “Somebody” could be your best friend or your mom or your sister or your next door neighbor. I'd love to see you there!
