Summer Stages Awarded NEA 2010 Grant: Access to Artistic Excellence
Summer Stages Dance has once again received a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for the acclaimed Meet the Artist Performance Series. The grant is awarded under the category Access to Artistic Excellence, which encourages and supports artistic creativity, preserves our diverse cultural heritage, and makes the arts more widely available in communities throughout the country. This grant requires a nonfederal match of at least 1 to 1. To see the line-up of contemporary dance artists and companies coming to Summer Stages this July, click on the Performance Series link at our homepage.
Summer Stages is in great company in receiving this award. For details, please read the NEA’s press release at:

The arts lift our spirits!
In partnering with such leading institutions as the Baryshnikov Arts Center, Boston Ballet and the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston, Summer Stages seeks to create the most exciting projects and residencies for American contemporary dance. Recently, The Banjo Project, a musical odyssey through 300 years of American history and culture, developed by Emmy-winning writer-producer Marc Fields, captured footage of 'Making the Dances for the Banjo Project' during which banjo virtuoso Tony Trischka (the Project’s Music Director) and dancers from Summer Stages ’06 Workshop worked with choreographer/percussionist Sule Greg Wilson and rehearsed pieces from three signature eras of banjo-dance performance.
