Mary Lane, Director of Unevenlane, has been selected selected for the John
F. Kennedy Center 10th Annual Local Dance Commissioning Project Award. The
Kennedy Center created the Local Dance Commissioning Project (LDCP) in 2001
to foster new dance works by local artists, and present these artists to the
widest possible audience via the Millennium Stage and the internet
web-casts. A select number of Washington, D.C. metro area choreographers are
chosen each year from a pool of more than 50 applicants. The project
provides funds for each artist to create a new piece, a venue to premiere
the work, as well as rehearsal space and technical assistance. Past LDCP
recipients have included Nejla Yatkin, Jason Hartley, Ed Tyler, Boris
Willis, Meisha Bosma, Ludovic Jolivet, Helanius J. Wilkins, Aysha Upchurch,
Gesel Mason, Karen Reedy, Vincent Thomas, and Cassie Meador.
