The Dance New Jersey Mini-Grant 2022 is a re-granting program designed to support the recovery and renewal of the New Jersey dance community due to the effects of COVID-19.  Grant requests up to $2,500 are available as relief funds to individual dance artists (dancers, dance performers, and choreographers) who have experienced loss of dance work opportunities and income due to the pandemic.  DNJ funds will support a diverse range of dance artists from across the state.  In efforts to create a more equitable dance community, DNJ will award a minimum of 50% of grant funds to BIPOC-identifying individual dance artists. 

This grant is made possible by the New Jersey Arts and Culture Renewal Fund.  Originally named the New Jersey Arts and Culture Recovery Fund, it was established in 2020 to ensure the survival, strength and sustainability of the state’s arts, cultural and historical sector during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
