Dance Base Scotland Deadline: 22 January 2025 at 11:00 Dance Base is seeking applications for its Summer Artist Residency Programme which will run from 21 April to 27 June 2025. Throughout the year, Dance Base offers a series of paid residencies to professional dance artists, choreographers, and companies based in Scotland to develop their work in a supportive, well-equipped, and welcoming space. Each residency provides: A clean, warm studio space Monday - Friday roughly 10:00 - 17:00 The full funding that the artist requires to: Pay fair artist fees to themselves and their collaborators Cover travel & accommodation costs Artistic mentoring from the Artistic Director (on request) An additional access budget to support the artist We strive to support artists at each stage of their career and welcome applications for proposals at all levels, from pure movement/experimental research to work that forms a step in a wider project. Applicants are asked to provide a budget and rationale for their expenditure. Dance Base will not set a limit for what they can apply for but will provide clear best practice guidance on rates of pay and a list of what additional support Dance Base can offer in-kind (e.g., technical equipment). Dance Base will endeavour to cover the budget as proposed, but if there are activities listed that cannot be funded, we may ask for an amended budget to reflect this. As part of the week, each residency artist will be invited to share their practice with their peers, the public, and the sector if this is suitable for them to do so. Dance Base recognises that there are significant barriers to working in the dance sector and that these challenges are experienced more acutely by those facing marginalisation and deep-rooted systemic injustice. As part of our ongoing commitment to support artists who have this lived experience and ensure we support the full vibrancy of the dance sector in Scotland, we guarantee that at least one of our residencies each year will go to a lead artist who identifies as a member of the Black and People of Colour community, and that at least one will go to a lead artist who identifies as d/Deaf or Disabled. This is a minimum but not a limit. Location: Edinburgh City For further information, please contact Marlous Lang-Peterse, call +44 131 225 5525, or visit
