Description
This grant supports U.S. nonprofit presenting organizations in bringing National Dance Project (NDP)-awarded dance projects to their communities. The Presentation Grant subsidizes up to 50% of the artist's fee—including housing, per diem, and travel expenses—making it more feasible for organizations to present innovative dance works to audiences nationwide. By fostering these touring engagements, the grant aims to expand access to dynamic dance performances, strengthen the national dance ecosystem, and encourage new connections between artists and the public.
