NATIONAL DANCE PROJECT PRODUCTION GRANT FINALISTS

The National Dance Project Production Grants deliver a combination of funds including up to $45,000 to create a new work, $10,000 in unrestricted general operating support, and up to $35,000 in tour subsidies that go to U.S. organizations that bring the new work to their communities.
Of the 36 Production Grant Finalists for 2017, two are UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture faculty members. Congratulations to Interim Dean and Professor David Roussève for his project Halfway to Dawn: The Strayhorn Project and World Arts and Cultures/Dance Department Chair and Professor Lionel Popkin for his project Awkwardly Related: On the Road with Oedipus and Antigone.
