The LiftOff Residency takes place at NDA’s Studio in TriBeCa and provides three physical-based performance artists with a minimum of 36 hours of rehearsal space each, a $500 stipend, and monthly Work Sessions.
Work Sessions are designed to share about the creative process and project development, and participate in a community exchange. They are a space to present live work you are creating during the residency and get feedback. Discussions regarding process, development, and production are also encouraged.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, the residency is only available for solo artists, or groups of up to four artists. All artists must be fully vaccinated by the start of their residency. More about LiftOff can be found here.
New Dance Alliance continues to support artists with free opportunities throughout the pandemic. If you are able, please consider making a donation to support the development and endurance of NDA’s Satellite, LiftOff, Black Artists Space to Create Residencies, and Performance Mix Festival. Please consider making a donation to support the continuation and development of our programs.

“Performance Mix Festival has its own life, and Karen and the staff continue to evolve with the times in a way I appreciate…it was tremendous to be a Liftoff AIR and then get to show the work I had continued to explore as an AIR a year later at PMF!”
