**APPLICATION DEADLINE - AUGUST 18TH**

Dual Rivet is excited to announce our 3rd annual MADE BY WOMEN Festival, highlighting women choreographers & filmmakers. This festival advocates and celebrates inclusion by connecting underrepresented creators with networking, resources, and an opportunity to present their work amongst the NYC community with the goal of impacting meaningful change in the industry. Through this festival the company is dedicated to advancing the careers of cis, trans, and gender expansive women creators in dance, dance theater, and movement on film. 

This year we are excited to include Film Night in addition to the Live Performances MADE BY WOMEN has hosted at Arts On Site's Studio 3R over the past two years. 

** The directors of MADE BY WOMEN understand that gender and womanhood- to be specific- is an expansive expression that surpasses binaries. Trans, queer, BIPOC, and gender expansive women are highly encouraged to apply. **
