To download the application as a pdf file click here; for a Word document, click here.
Applications are due no later than Friday, April 11, 2008.

The Space Grant Program is designed to give Brooklyn based choreographers, playwrights, and multi-disciplinary artists the opportunity to create new work in a setting that is conducive to working deeply and exploring new territory. Awards are between 40-75 hours of free space in one of BAX's three spaces and are granted one time per year. Hours are used in a selected three month period. Applications are generally available in late winter/early spring and awards are selected through a panel process. We actively seek artists who can demonstrate need for our space and the ability to work effectively. All awardees present some or all of the work created during the BAX Performance Season. Artists who have received previous space grants must wait three years before reapplying. Applicants must be Brooklyn Residents.
