COMPASS is offering a two-week residency for young and emerging dance artists aged between 18 and 25, taking place in Härnösand on 18-30 July 2022.
The residency includes:
- Studio space on 18-30 July 2022
- Accommodation of one room for up to two people
- Travel to and from Härnosand within Sweden
- Opportunity to join morning sessions/classes with ilYoung
- Mentorship on the project from ilDance, depending on what you need (artistic, production or coaching)
- Per diem of 230 SEK per person per day for 13 days
This residency will take place at the same time that ilDance’s professional junior company, ilYoung, will also be working in Härnösands Folkhögskola on their new production.
This would offer the artists in residency a supportive and inspiring creative context for their own process. The artist in residency is not requested or expected to interact with ilYoung, but they are welcome to. Morning classes take place daily and artists on residence are welcome to participate in those classes.
This residency is offered by COMPASS, with the support of ilDance, Härnösand Folkhögskola and New Education for Contemporary Dance Härnösand.
