African dance and spoken word residencies help students develop a deeper understanding and greater appreciation of the arts.
These free programs cover a range of interests, from critical viewing and writing about performance and film, to dancing and choreography, to examining issues of social justice.
BAM Education’s virtual programs provide greater access to world-class art, combining video excerpts of BAM performances with activities led in real time by a BAM teaching artist.
Every year, BAM awards two-year, four-year, and graduate student scholarships, in honor of former BAM Trustee Samuel Scripps.
This new scholarship opportunity, established in honor of Baba Chuck Davis’ final year as DanceAfrica artistic director, offers emerging choreographers a chance to travel and study in Africa or its diaspora.
