PearlDiving Movement Residency (PDMR) supports professional movement artists making dance-centered multimedia work by providing rehearsal space, technical support, mentorship, and a stipend during a 4-week-long residency. The dual-track program serves both local and visiting artists and offers time in an environment where research, play, and risk-taking are encouraged in order to create and present new work.
Participants are committed to personal and professional development, community engagement, and represent diverse voices in the local and national contemporary dance field. Each residency culminates with a shared public work-in-progress showing. Priority will be given to BIPOC, Women, LGBTQIA artists and artists with disabilities.
