Partners in Creation
A Creative Journey
The Partners in Creation
program offers a front row seat to Bill T. Jones' artistic process, allowing an
unprecedented level of access to one of the pre-eminent artists of our time as
he conceptualizes, choreographs, develops and refines a new work. The creative
journey follows a work from the gestation of the first creative idea through the
rehearsal process to the premiere and touring of the work. Through private
rehearsals, salons with the artists in the homes of our partners and/or board
members, email updates from Bill, and private dinners and opening night
performances, our Partners in Creation enjoy a first-hand experience of the
creative journey.
Partners in Creation Commissions
Since its inception in
2006, Partners in Creation have funded over 60% of each of the two new works that
have been developed, Chapel/Chapter
(2006) and A Quarreling Pair (2007). Upcoming new work creations and special projects include: Serenade/The Proposition; Fondly Do We Hope...Fervently Do We Pray; Lincoln
Lectures, and the 100 Migrations (nationwide workshops). To date they have raised $1.85 million.
