Welcome to Inanimate Dance, a home to apparatus-based dance work of all kinds.

We host the community driven challenge Inanimate 48 and promote awesome apparatus dance works in the community on social media

The next Inanimate 48 will take place April 19-21, 2024. This is the LAST Inanimate 48 event ever held, so don’t hesitate! Registration is now open.

Inanimate 48 2024 will work a little differently than past years. This year, there are no curators. All participants who submit a work by the deadline will be invited to vote, as a community, for one selected artist to receive the cash prize. Money saved from not paying curators goes back into this prize pot and back into our charitable donation.
