AMP SEEKS GUEST ARTISTS FOR 2022-23 SEASON
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 11:59pm CST
on Friday, May 20th, 2022. Alternative Motion Project (AMP) is now accepting choreographic proposals for ViewPoints ‘22. This new performance series will feature an evening of world premieres created by multiple guest choreographers. Included in each work will be some type of interpretation or incorporation around the concept of “identity.” While AMP works primarily within contemporary dance, choreographers who create in non-contemporary styles and modalities are highly encouraged to apply. AMP will provide administrative and financial support so that artists can focus on the creative process. Choreographers who identify as BIPOC +/or LGBTQIA+ are encouraged to apply. |
