Dance Advancement Fund

 Made possible by the generous support of the Howard Gilman Foundation and Ford Foundation, Dance/NYC invited dance making organizations and groups based in the metropolitan NYC area with operating budgets of $25,000-$250,000 to submit applications for awards through the fourth iteration of the Dance Advancement Fund.

Selected dance-making organizations and groups received general operating support grants ranging from $6,000 to $40,000, awarded over a two-year period, including ongoing professional development from September 1, 2024 - August 31, 2026. The grantees of this program were announced on October 29, 2024.

A dancer in a black tutu and leotard and pointe shoes stands on one leg, with the other leg extended behind the body in a straight line. One arm is raised above the head and the other extended to the back parallel to the extended leg. The school director is opposite the dancer and wears a red DTH logo t-shirt and black pants and ballet slippers. She holds the hand of the arm raised above the dancer’s head with one arm and her back arm is extended and she is smiling at the student.
