TMB’s young dancers are so grateful to share the stage with him, and let’s give him a warm welcome to our Williamsburg performing arts community!

Jackson Calhoun was exposed to arts education at a young age. He attended the Arts Based School during his earliest years, to then study and graduate from The University of North Carolina’s School of the Arts’ Ballet high school program. From high school, he was accepted as a Richmond Ballet II dancer and is returning for his third season with the Richmond Ballet.
