Deadline: April 4, 2007

The American Dance Festival ( http://americandancefestival.org/ ) has announced the 2007 Arts Journalism Institute for Dance Criticism for professional print, electronic, radio, and television journalists with support from The New York Times Company Foundation. The program for writers will be held at the festival on the campus of Duke University in Durham,

The institute is specifically designed for professionals interested in further developing their analysis of dance while additionally shaping their personal writing style. The fellows will attend an extensive range of performances, write reviews, observe classes, take part in discussions with ADF guest speakers, teachers, choreographers, dance critics, and faculty, participate in movement sessions, and participate in panel discussions analyzing the function and possibilities of today's dance critic.

The fellowships cover tuition, room and board, and tickets to performances.
