ABOUT US

Launched in 2018 as an independent show, the Rhode Island Women’s Choreography Project is produced entirely by women and nonbinary persons: from organizing, to marketing, to the participating choreographers creating new work. RIWCP receives invaluable support from Ballet RI and Providence Ballet Theatre, as well as Rhode Island State Council on the Arts, Providence Tourism Council, and Providence Arts Culture + Tourism.

A Note from the Director...

I’m thrilled to lead Choreography Project into its next chapter. The growth of the organization since its inception as a one-time completely volunteer performance opportunity to a fully recognized nonprofit that provides stipends to all of our participants is astounding. The support from other arts organizations, individual artists, and the community at large proves how vital and important our work is. As a former professional dancer, I have an intimate understanding of the need for CP’s purpose to bring greater equity to the dance community. There are very few programs dedicated to nurturing new choreographers and leaders in the dance field. My leadership of CP will be informed by my experiences during my dance career and focused on providing resources to artists that were not available to me. I look forward to a bright future of expanding CP’s reach, honoring the vision and mission of the organization, and providing a platform for underrepresented voices.
