Supporting artistic creation in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation is the primary mission of Charleroi Danse.
Each year, the centre hosts around fifty artistic residencies across its venues in Charleroi and Brussels, ranging from short to several-week residencies. In addition, co-production support is provided to around forty productions created by choreographers from the Wallonia-Brussels Federation as well as international companies.
A call for projects for research grants and co-productions is launched twice a year (one dedicated to projects by artists recognized by the Federation Wallonia-Brussels, and the other for projects by international artists).
Following this, an internal artistic committee meets to select the projects that will receive production support.
