Grants for Choreographers and Dancers
The latest funding for performing artists.
We are back with another highly requested playlist (our unique way of grouping grants) tailored specifically for choreographers and dancers. We hope this makes finding funding even easier.
There are currently (10) grants listed.
Note: These grants have already been shared with our paid subscribers in our monthly newsletters (August 2025 and September 2025) and other playlists.
Bookmark this page as we will update this resource regularly.
Our other playlists include:
1. Bryn Du’s Artists in Residence
Bryn Du’s Artists in Residence will receive a $1,000 stipend for every 4 weeks of their stay on campus. It is expected that an artist will reside on site for 8 or 12 weeks. The residence program will provide an inspirational setting for the creation of artistic works by one artist at a time, across all disciplines. Not limited to those in the fields of visual arts, literature, music, theatre, fashion, dance, storytelling, and audiovisual studies. Artists are responsible for their own materials, food, etc.
Deadline: August 31, 2025
2. The Master Artist and Apprentice Grant in Traditional Alaska Native Arts
The goal of this opportunity is to support and encourage the preservation and perpetuation of traditional Alaska Native art forms. Grants underwrite a serious one-on-one study between an apprentice and a recognized master artist in any traditional Alaska Native art form. Art forms include visual arts, traditional crafts, music, dance, storytelling, song, and the creation of traditional functional objects. $2,000 will be awarded.
Deadline: September 1, 2025
3. Surel’s Place Artists in Residence Program - For Visual, Literary & Performance Artists
This one-month program is open to professional visual, literary, and performance artists: painters, writers, musicians, architects, filmmakers, and choreographers… any artist who needs a place to focus. They favor artists whose work is technically advanced, unique, attractive (need not be pretty!), and conceptually valuable. In addition, because they ask the residents to interact with the public through one workshop and one final event, they welcome artists who desire to connect with an audience in these ways. $700 will be provided.
Deadline: September 1, 2025
