Fall Movement and Spring Movement provide an opportunity for artists to present new work in dance, performance, and time-based art in a shared program, curated by an independent panel of artists through an OPEN CALL.

CPR is soliciting applications for two distinct programs spanning two seasons, with each program presenting five short works. Fall Movement will be presented on Fri, December 4 and Sat, December 5, 2025, and Spring Movement will be presented on Fri, March 5 and Sat, March 6, 2026. Applicants must be available to share their proposed work in either the Fall Movement 2025 or Spring Movement 2026 program.

Individual artists, collectives, and companies may propose a live performance work that is 15-20 minutes in length. CPR encourages applicants to submit work with experimental approaches to content, form, and aesthetic, and work that values risk-taking and the unexpected.

Please read the full program details before applying, including notes on what will make a competitive proposal. Email applications@cprnyc.org with any questions.
