APPLICATIONS OPEN

The Hull Dance Development Award - £2000 (plus free studio time)

The focus for this award, this time, is working with young people. We offer support for an artist/artists to explore ways to include young people’s voice in their work. This could be within an established piece or work, or through the creation of a new piece.

The application is as simple as telling us what you would do in a week to include young people’s voice in the development of your practice

  •         Describe clearly what you will do during the week
  •         Describe how you want to capture young people’s voice in your work
  •         Describe the young people who you want to work with
  •         Tell us why you are interested in this award and how you hope it will impact on your practice
  •         Tell us when you would like to come to Hull, ideally before May 2025
  •         Provide us with a website address, or some film footage so we can get to know you and your work a little better.

You can make your application in writing, on film, or by an audio submission. If you have any questions please email hulldancecic@gmail.com or call Keyna on 07889389590.

Applications must be submitted before 5 pm, Friday 29 November 2024
