Van Cleef & Arpels is proud to support L.A. Dance Project
Van Cleef & Arpels has a long-standing relationship with the world of dance, music and art. In 1967, George Balanchine, founder of the New York City Ballet, where Benjamin Millepied was a long time principal dancer, met Claude Arpels. This meeting turned into a life-long friendship which climaxed with the creation of the ballet “Jewels” inspired by the rubies, emeralds and diamonds of Van Cleef & Arpels’ jewelry. Since that time, the Maison has continued to support the art of dance through special performances and educational programming.
