Cheshire Dance supports artists working in any area of practice (performance, professional development, participation) but prioritise artists whose work has a connection to one of our communities of interest as participants, audience or beneficiaries. We are interested in supporting new ideas, new models of engagement, innovative and alternative practices and approaches.

 

*Cheshire Dance are open to hearing from all artists wanting to work in and around Cheshire, however priority has to be given due to limited resources.

 

“At Cheshire Dance we champion the role of dance artists in society and work with both emerging and established artists to create performance and engagement practice, support their professional development and career ambitions.”
