Creative New Zealand $100,000 Choreographic Fellowship 2015 open for applications
Applications from established New Zealand choreographers are being called for the $100,000 Creative New Zealand Choreographic Fellowship.
The value of the biennial fellowship was increased from $65,000 following Creative New Zealand’s 2013 review of its support for New Zealand dance.
The fellowship provides the time and/or resources for the Fellow to commit to a period of investigation, experimentation or research in their practice. It will be awarded for a project and/or programme of activity and is open to choreographers who have already produced a significant body of work.
Previous recipients of the fellowship are: Malia Johnston (2013), Catherine Chappell (2011), Daniel Belton (2009), Lemi Ponifasio (2008), Michael Parmenter (2006), Douglas Wright (2005) and Shona McCullagh (2004).
The results of Creative New Zealand’s dance review are available on the website.
Applications close at 5pm on Friday 6 March 2015. For more information on how to apply for theChoreographic Fellowship go to the Getting Funded section of the Creative New Zealand website.
