Brighton Ballet Theater is attempting to address a major need in the lower-income and immigrant neighborhoods of Brighton Beach, Sheepshead Bay, and Coney Island; a lack of cultural and artistic programming for children ages 8-18. As part of its ongoing goal of providing a cultural oasis for the community, BBT places a major emphasis on attracting and educating talented children from disadvantaged families. Since many of these children lack sufficient financial resources to complete a dance education, BBT often subsidizes the cost of their education or even provides outright full-tuition scholarships. Using this approach, BBT has been successful in supporting the early dance careers of a number of talented children with partial or full dance scholarships.
