As long-term and active funders of innovative choreography and dance in the UK, Jerwood is delighted to have enabled FABRIC’s Jerwood Choreographic Research Project.

FABRIC prioritises supporting research without the pressure of needing to develop an artwork, offering a commitment to creating space for artists to explore new innovations in dance and choreography.  We are grateful to Jerwood Foundation for coming with us on this journey, providing investment that shines a light on the importance of time and resources to explore new leads and new discoveries in evolving the art form.
