Fresh Meat Productions

Fresh Meat Productions is a San Francisco-based non-profit, minority-owned corporate entity registered in SAM.gov since 2009, with a focus on dance and arts performance. The organization appears to be primarily centered around choreographer Sean Dorsey's dance work, specializing in creating and touring innovative performance pieces that likely explore social themes and engage with community audiences. As a registered non-profit, Fresh Meat Productions operates within the artistic and cultural sector, with a particular emphasis on contemporary dance and related community engagement activities.

The organization has consistently received project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), specifically through the Promotion of the Arts Grants to Organizations and Individuals program (CFDA 45.024). These grants have supported multiple dance productions and tours, including "The Lost Art of Dreaming" and "Boys in Trouble" by Sean Dorsey. The grant awards, ranging from $150,000 for COVID-19 recovery support to project-specific funding, have enabled the organization to develop and premiere new dance works, conduct national tours, and implement community engagement activities. The grants have also supported personnel expenses and helped the organization maintain operational continuity during the pandemic. Each grant typically covers a one-year period, with recent awards spanning from 2020 to 2025, demonstrating the organization's ongoing relationship with the NEA and its commitment to artistic innovation and community cultural development.
