Karen Kain Legacy Fund

Honour Karen and Invest in Artistic Leadership

In recognition of her unique legacy as a dancer, creative collaborator, arts advocate and leader, we have established the Karen Kain Legacy Fund in The National Ballet of Canada, Endowment Foundation. Closely aligned with the company’s prominence and success for over 50 years, her tenure as Artistic Director of The National Ballet of Canada was marked by a rare mix of a bold artistic vision and an unwavering commitment to the long-term financial health of the company.

Each gift to the Karen Kain Legacy Fund will help future artistic directors strike the same balance between seizing new artistic opportunities and maintaining fiscal stability that were hallmarks of Karen's leadership. Like Karen, Hope Muir and future artistic directors will have resources to develop visionary ideas with funds directed to new initiatives, collaborations and projects that further the artistic mission of the National Ballet such as new productions, international touring, community engagement and audience development.

Honour Karen’s legacy and invest in future artistic leadership by making a gift to the Karen Kain Legacy Fund today.
