COCA Spotlight
 
Amy Lowe
Artistic Director of The Ballet Arts Conservatory of Tallahassee
The Ballet Arts Conservatory of Tallahassee (BACT) will celebrate its 23rd anniversary this summer. Established by artistic director and educator Amy Lowe, the studio and its youth ballet ensemble have persevered through the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent variants by remaining steadfast in the belief that “ballet changes lives.” 
 
Lowe was proud to see her students excel even while dancing on Zoom from their living rooms. Last year’s BACT performances took place outdoors at the Goodwood Museum and Gardens’ Carriage House as well as at the Ball House and Cottages at SouthWood.
