The application for #NBT’s SOUL Producing Residency is now open This program is a training program working to empower the next generation of producers, general managers, and curators. Through a ten-month residency, NBT gives one Black producer a place to call home and at the culmination of the residency, the Producer will helm one of the season’s productions, concerts, and micro commissions during the NBT season. Through this program, we seek to give artists of color the ...opportunity to learn and develop the skills and networks needed to produce in NYC. This program is designed to work either remotely and/or in person and therefore candidates do not have to live solely in the NY Tri-State area. Applications due June 24th!
