COMING SOON!

We are ecstatic to announce our 2024-2025 New Choreographer Grant Application will open on Saturday, June 1, 2024. The application will close on Sunday, September 15, 2024.

ABOUT THE GRANT

Eryc Taylor Dance provides grants to aspiring choreographers to enable them to produce a 15-20 minute original piece. Eryc Taylor Dance reviews applications and selects grant recipients based on merit, dance experience, passion for choreography, and production innovation.

Eryc Taylor Dance will award a $1,000 grant to three recipients this year for the 2024-2025 cycle. Follow us on social media @eryctaylordance and @etdoutreah for updates!

ELIGIBILITY

Eligible applicants will be 19-25-year-old New York/New Jersey-based (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Hoboken, Jersey City, or Staten Island) choreographers who have never received prior private, corporate, or government funding to create a new work. Choreographers must apply an original, new concept that has yet to be worked on or performed anywhere. This submission must be an original concept. It must not be shown before the open studio showing in Spring 2025. This grant is for individual choreographers ONLY; collaborations with other choreographers or ‘collectives’ are prohibited. Eligible applicants must demonstrate strong examples of their choreographic style, vision, and process for a 15-20 minute original performance with at least three or more dancers. Preference is given to collaborators with musicians or other artistic production designers.

For any questions or concerns, please email Savannah Gaillard (Company Manager) at info@etd.nyc and/or Liviya England (ETD Outreach Program Director) at outreach@etd.nyc.
