Webb Center Awarded NEA Grant for Dance Residency

The Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts received a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Grants for Arts Projects award.

“This $10,000 Grant supports the Parsons Dance Company for a 2023 “Made in Wickenburg” Dance Residency,” said Cathy Weiss, Webb Center CEO.

David Parsons and his talented Company will create original work during a two-week stay in Arizona. The program offers an opportunity to create away from everyday pressures.

This grant is one of 1,251 Grants for Arts Projects that were announced by the NEA as part of its first round of fiscal year 2023 grants.

“Projects such as this one with the Webb Center strengthen arts and cultural ecosystems, provide equitable opportunities for
arts participation and practice, and contribute to the health of our communities and our
economy.”

Up to three residency projects are selected each year. The residencies are flexible in length up to 2 weeks and are available in October – December 2022 and January 2023.
