Details:
As part of the award, the awardee will share an evening of work presented by the partner, Portland Ovations, through their Raising the Barre initiative. Program to be mutually determined based on venue, production, scale, etc.
Within the $50,000 award, the recipient is responsible for all artist fees, travel/transportation to and from Maine, and all production elements needed to stage an evening of work in Maine. Any monies remaining beyond these expenses are to be fully retained by the artist to use as they need. Portland Ovations will provide presentation tech, local transportation, lodging, and marketing and manage all presentation elements. Applicants should be aware that Maine venues are primarily proscenium. This is not a commission, and the recipient is not obligated to present any new work. A sample contract is available in the submittable. All questions should be directed to the Ellis-Beauregard Foundation.
The Choreographer Award is an effort to bolster the field, incubate new ideas, and bring more dance to Maine. In its finest iteration, Choreography Dance is sublime, expressive, and powerful beyond language. They are thrilled to join the conversation to support movement-based art.
