State Street Ballet is an international dance company based in Santa Barbara, California, founded in 1994 by Rodney Gustafson. It brings together dancers from around the world to produce performances that fuse traditional ballet with innovative contemporary works. Guided by Artistic Director Megan Philipp and Executive Director Cecily MacDougall, the company maintains a roster of international artists and runs a professional trainee program, an annual summer intensive, and educational outreach on the Central Coast.

Positioned within the performing arts sector, the organization serves audiences seeking both classic ballet and new choreography, while advancing dance education in its region. A notable development in 2024 was a partnership with the Spokane Symphony to present a collaborative Nutcracker production with additional local dancers, illustrating cross-city collaboration beyond its home area.
