This national program provides one-time grants of up to $3,000 to professional dancers in need who are in dire financial emergency due to the loss or lack of recent/current live performance work because of circumstances outside of their control.

Funds can be used for rent, utilities, healthcare/medical expenses, transportation, and related expenses. Applicants must live in the United States, the District of Columbia, a Tribal Nation, or a U.S. Territory.

We’re accepting applications for Cycle 16 through Tuesday, December 10, 5:00 PM ET.
