REGRANTING

Dance/NYC delivers financial resources to the dance community in its role as a regrantor, distributing funds and filling gaps in access and investment. Underpinned by our values of justice, equity, and inclusion, our regranting programs seek to address and repair systemic failures that have historically hindered equitable investment opportunities.

Dance/NYC regranting programs are available publicly as open calls except in such instances as available funding is best served by renewing funding to a grantee cohort of a previous fund. Each program is developed either directly in response to our research findings and/or to emergency events that impact the dance/arts sector.
