ARTIST PROGRAMS
Velocity’s Artist Programs are designed to help artists make and share dance works in Seattle. Our Creative Incubator Programs support the creation and premiere of new dance works. We also have a limited number of Presenting Programs meant to present existing works to Seattle audiences; either through our Guest Artist Series or our Seattle Festival of Dance + Improvisation (SFD+I). These programs, alongside our education programs, are the core of what we do at Velocity.
Some of these programs span years of research and development, so click below to learn more about some of the artists currently creating new dance works through our programs at Velocity.
