Tribes will support through offering free rehearsal space, DansBlok will provide feedback and artistic counseling, work-in-progress-presentations, support with media and publicity. By providing a residency, we hope to remove barriers for artists who cannot afford to hire the space they need. We will be providing free space for over 80 hours throughout the specified residency period, al well as artistic support, opportunity to share research and ideas and publicity.

The residency supports contemporary artistic creation, stimulating research and development.
