Apply to Movement Research’s Parent Artist Residency Program!

Movement Research is inviting Parent Artists to apply for the 2023 Movement Research Parent Artist Residency!

Movement Research’s Parent Artist Residency (PAR) program aims to address the need for flexible and supportive creative arts services for parent artists in the field of dance and movement-based art forms, based in the New York City metropolitan area. The high cost of childcare, combined with studio rental costs, are often a barrier preventing parent artists from having time in the studio to produce creative work. Movement Research aims to help address this challenge through the Parent Artist Residency Program.

Three (3) artists will be selected to participate in the 2023 Parent Artist Residency Program. Applications will be reviewed and selected through a panel process. The 2023 residencies will take place between July 5 and September 17, 2023. An orientation meeting for selected Parent Artist Residents will be held in June 2023, prior to the start of the residency.

Selected artists will receive 50 hours of rehearsal space, a $1000 residency stipend, and a childcare stipend in the amount of $1000. Additional opportunities through the residency may include the following: meeting as a group during the residency, sharing work-in-process, participating in a Studies Project, and consulting with Movement Research staff.

Application Deadline: Applications must be submitted by 11:59pm EST on Tuesday, February 7, 2023.

Notification: Applicants will receive notification in mid-March 2023.

Residency Dates: July 5 - September 7, 2023
