DECISION NOTIFICATION: February 2027
RESIDENCY DATES: Thursday, July 22 – Monday, August 9, 2027
About: Art Omi: Dance brings together accomplished dance artists from around the world for two and a half weeks of creative exchange each summer. Residents experience each other’s creative process and the freedom to play in this collaborative residency program.
The emphasis of the Art Omi: Dance residency is not a performance product; rather, a gently facilitated process of experimentation and collaboration. This exploration is enhanced by providing resources that dancers and choreographers often lack: space, time and other artists with whom to work. The result is a model of creative process and community building that envisions consequences for the participants beyond the sphere of art making. Informal public showings each summer invite the public to learn about the artists, experience the creative process, and collaborations of the residents.
Art Omi: Dance welcomes professional dancers and choreographers of all dance genres/styles who have the desire to share ideas and process with dancers from around the world. Applicants should not have specific projects in mind, but should come open to working with others on jointly conceived projects.
