Mediteranski plesni centar / Mediterranean Dance Center, Svetvinčenat

CONDITIONS OF THE CALL
During the residency, the chosen artists will live and work in the Center.
The studio measures 9 x 20 meters. There is a wooden floor (with the possibility of using a black or white dance floor), ordinary working lights (no special equipment), a wardrobe, a sanitary facility, and a kitchenette.
MPC will host a maximum of 5 people on the upper floor, in an open-space sleeping area overlooking the studio itself (if there are more than 5 artists to join the residency please explain in the application).
MPC will cover food costs during the stay.

If offered a residency, we expect you to accept the conditions above, cover your travel expenses, and make an open presentation for the audience at the end of your stay.
But if you feel you won`t be ready to test the work in front of an audience, you can choose to teach a workshop instead. Or you can do both, which is preferable. Other propositions like round tables or performing other work during the stay are also welcome.

The donation for the application submission is recommended but not required. In the last step, you will be able to choose between several amounts.

The deadline for applications is 23:59 on February 20th, 2023.
