Valued at $30,000, the Robert Helpmann Dance Scholarship is offered biennially by the NSW Government to assist a professional dancer or choreographer to develop their career.
Applicants are invited to submit proposals that include further study or training, professional research or the undertaking of a particular dance project.
Applicants should be able to demonstrate how their proposal will develop a vision for future dance practice and how it shares the spirit and general intention of the scholarship.
The tenure of the scholarship will be for a period of one year unless the term is varied by the judging committee. The scholarship program may be undertaken in Australia or overseas, but the successful applicant will be expected to return to New South Wales and should provide evidence of how the State would benefit from the program.
The scholarship commemorates one of the most important Australian dancers and choreographers, the late Sir Robert Helpmann (1909-86), whose career on stage, film and television spanned the years 1923 to 1986.
The closing date for applications is Friday 6 June 2008.
