Rudolf Nureyev Dance Foundation
Welcome to The Rudolf Nureyev® Dance Foundation dedicated to Rudolf Nureyev, “the greatest dancer of his time.” “He wanted his name and spirit to carry on after his death and he created the Foundation for that purpose.” Rudolf Nureyev Dance Foundation based in Chicago, U.S.A. provides grants in the U.S. for ballet and modern dance performances, funds dance schools and dance scholarships, provides financial assistance for the creation of new choreography and re-staging the great choreographic productions Rudolf Nureyev created, and supports the establishment of dance collections and film archives to preserve the history, tradition and appreciation of dance. The Foundation’s Board of Directors – Jeannette Etheredge, Paul Horowitz, Joyce A. Moffatt, Barry L. Weinstein, and Hilary Weinstein – wish to provide information about Rudolf Nureyev and help dance organizations in the United States that are seeking grants to submit meaningful proposals to the Foundation for its consideration.
