Listening to a Permanent Culture of Dance

We are excited to announce the open call for the highly anticipated residency, “Listening to a Permanent Culture of Dance,” focusing on the intersection of dance, permaculture, and sustainability. This residency aims to explore how we can share a dance of equal bodies, not just as a life event, but as a way of being and being with others, inspired by the principles of permaculture.

This residency is for dance artists as well as professionals whose work relates to permaculture, such as ecological designers, environmental artists, sustainable architects, permaculture educators/facilitators, botanical artists, permaculture filmmakers/photographers and craftspeople who focus on traditional crafts using locally sourced, sustainable materials.
