The Association of Ballet Artists of Slovenia is a professional association of ballet artists with a current membership of over 280. The association acts as a representative of the interests of ballet practitioners, informs its members of important events, issues the bulletin Ballet (available also online), and confers the highest award in the field of ballet, the Lydia Wisiakova Prize.


Overview

Established in the 1950s, the Association of Ballet Artists of Slovenia promotes the art of ballet with a number of activities, ranging from the organisation of ballet evenings to presentations of ballet as an art form in primary and secondary schools across Slovenia. Each year, the association organises a ballet concert, held at one of the two national opera and ballet houses, namely at Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Ljubljana - Opera and Ballet and Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Maribor, where the recipients of the Lydia Wisiakova Prize are presented; organises the annual gala evening of new ballet choreographies accompanied by original Slovene music, usually held at Cankarjev dom Culture and Congress Centre; as well as organises presentations of Slovene ballet schools and societies and other ballet events. The association also confers awards for outstanding choreographic achievement in the area of ballet – the Pia and Pino Mlakar Award, named after the dancers, choreographers, and initiators of ballet education and Slovenia Pia and Pino Mlakar.

The association cooperates with the Society of Slovene Composers, Jeunesses Musicales International (JMI), Slovenia, Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia), and other cultural institutions, and is a member of the Chamber of Culture of Slovenia and a participating member of the European Council of Artists (ECA).
