National Dance Project/OverviewThe
National Dance Project (NDP) provides a system of support
for the living, growing discipline of contemporary dance by supporting
the production and distribution of dance in the United States. NDP views
touring as central to the vitality of dance as an art form and structures
its granting process to link the creation and touring of new work. Through
the dedicated efforts of dance presenters
across the country, NDP helps audiences connect with the rich and varied
talents of choreographers and their companies.
In addition to its core programming, NDP has established international partnerships that provide opportunities for international artists to tour their work in the U.S., and for U.S. presenters to receive support for their presentation. Other NDP programming includes initiatives such as the Regional Development Dance Initiative (RDDI), the Center for Creative Research (CCR) and the Contemporary Art Centers (CAC). NDP is overseen by a group of 10-12 performing arts presenter Hub
Sites and is advised by five dance field leaders, or Advisors.
