Two artists awarded Co3+STRUT dance fellowships

Laura Boynes and Georgia Van Gils share fellowships totalling $90,000 in a new initiative to enrich WA's independent dance ecology.

Two Perth-based independent dance companies, Co3 (pronounced Koh-three) Contemporary Dance and STRUT Dance, have combined to offer inaugural dance fellowships that will enable recipients to draw on the respective capabilities and resources of both companies.

Since 2016 Perth contemporary dance company Co3 has been the creative home for dance pioneer, educator and director Raewyn Hill, who developed the Pathways Program, partnerships with WAAPA and the independent dance sector, to empower and inspire the next generation of artists.
