Why Offshore Creation Residencies?

Time, space, and funding are powerful tools for an artist when developing new work. We take this to heart and have made Offshore Creation Residencies for artists, companies, and collaborating groups a defining paradigm of The Yard. The residency structure is a legacy of founder Patricia N. Nanon’s pioneering work with dance artists, beginning in the early 1970’s. Over the years, creation residencies at The Yard have become a valued local and national resource for artists and community alike.
