The Innovating Dance Practice grant program is an initiative of Ausdance NSW to support professional dance practitioners residing in NSW to develop and innovate their practice through funds made available by Arts NSW on behalf of the NSW Government. Applicants can apply for an amount between $500 and $5,000 to expand their personal dance practice.
Michelle Silby, Director of Ausdance NSW, is certain that the Innovating Dance Practice initiative will provide numerous artists with the ability to innovate their practice and ultimately contribute to the New South Wales dance sector. "We are really thrilled to have been successful in initiating this opportunity for individual dance artists in NSW. We will be delivering a devolved funding program for dance, supported by Arts NSW. This small grants program aims to support peoples dance practice through small one off grants that inspire and develop dance artists' skills. There is a total of $30,000 available each year, for the next three years".
