2023 Unrehearsed Artist Residency Program: APPLY NOW


  • Nava Dance Theatre 80 Turk Street San Francisco United States (map)

APPLICATIONS DUE OCT 31

The Unrehearsed Artist Residency Program aims to fund and support the creation of new dance work by artists who are often not represented in conventionally-funded spaces in the South Asian Dance industry. The program keeps care & developmental support front and center while working toward sharing a Final Work in Progress.

NOTE: The upcoming 2023 virtual residency program will provide awards of up to $1500 to 5 artists to center the strengths, experiences, and artistry from 1) historic contributors to Indian art who are often not credited for their work, 2) South Asian identifying folks practicing and creating in artforms that lack structural and organizational support in the South Asian performing arts industry or 3) have a history of using art to elevate awareness of urgent social justice issues.

We understand that not everybody is able to make a donation. So we've introduced a few accessible tickets for each day. We recommend that you take a look through the registration options and make the best choice for you.
