Auditions for incoming scholarship students will be held on Friday, March 16th from 2:00PM - 4:00PM at Gibney Dance (280 Broadway), Studio V.  

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

Serving approximately 25 students every year, scholarship students gain hands on experience working with a professional dance company. This program offers students attendance at company classes free-of-charge in the Muller Polarity Technique, taught by company members, alumni, Artistic Council Members and Jennifer Muller. In exchange for technique classes, scholarship students provide administrative support for JMTW, offering participants an invaluable, in-depth experience into the running of an arts organization. Company classes are held 5 days a week Monday-Friday, 11-1pm, at The Works' studio in Chelsea. Classes take place approximately 48 weeks out of the year.  For more about program and its requirements, please see: www.jmtw.org.
