Details:
The Contemporary Dance Award is an effort to bolster the field, incubate new ideas and, thanks to wonderful partnership with Portland Ovations and to amazing jurors, bring more dance to Maine. In its finest iteration, Contemporary Dance is transcendent and sublime, expressive and powerful beyond language. The Foundation is thrilled to join the conversation and support movement based art.
Within the $50,000 award, 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, marketing and manage all presentation elements. Applicants should be aware that Maine venues are primarily proscenium. This is not a commission nor is awardee required to present new work.
Eligibility Criteria
Artists across America are welcome to apply. Applicants must be 18 years of age, US citizens and not enrolled in an educational program.
