For over 70 years, the Toledo Symphony and Toledo Ballet have collaborated on various productions. On January 1, 2019, the Toledo Symphony and Toledo Ballet officially merged to form the Toledo Alliance for the Performing Arts (TAPA), a new non-profit organization dedicated to providing exceptional live music and dance performances and education for the Toledo region. This partnership creates new and invigorating programming, provides operational and revenue synergies, and integrates music and dance through shared educational missions. The Toledo Symphony and Toledo Ballet will operate as sibling brands under the TAPA umbrella.
