BILATERAL: Budapest/Philadelphia Dance Artists Exchange
Two dance artists are invited each year to explore dance and other cultural resources, as research for their own creative work and professional growth, in a 3 week residency; Philadelphia artists in Budapest, Hungary, and in the alternate year, Budapest artists in Philadelphia.
BILATERAL artists receive housing, per diem and a small stipend. Roundtrip airfare is provided.
The BILATERAL Budapest/Philadelphia Dance Artist Residency Exchange is artist centered, but the intent is to reveal some of the experience of dance artists in both cities as well as build connections between the two artistic communities.
The BILATERAL exchange is made possible with support from the Trust for Mutual Understanding and our presenting partner Műhely Alapítvány/Workshop Foundation.
To date eighteen dance artists have participated in a unique 3 week artist residency exchange begun by DanceUP and carried on through Philadelphia Dance Projects (PDP) in partnership Műhely Alapítvány/Workshop Foundation:
