How to Apply Art Omi: Dance Residency Program 2023/2024 for International Dancers.

The emphasis of the Art Omi: Dance residency is not a performance product; rather, a gently facilitated process of experimentation and collaboration.

This exploration is enhanced by providing resources that dancers and choreographers often lack: space, time and other artists with whom to work. The result is a model of creative process and community building that envisions consequences for the participants beyond the sphere of art making.

Informal public showings each summer invite the public to experience the creative process, collaboration and development of the residents.
