"…where Black history meets contemporary movement, and creative freedom takes form..."

Eboné Camille Amos is a performer, choreographer, and educator from Memphis, TN. As a graduate of Florida State University with her MFA in Performance and Choreography, her work has been performed nationally and internationally including the COCO Festival in Trinidad, Frist Museum in Nashville, TN, JDT in Jacksonville, Florida, and Rhythmically Speaking Dance in Minneapolis, MN. She has also had the pleasure of working with notable college dance programs such as Jacksonville University, Valdosta State University, Middle TN State University, and Western Kentucky University.

Eboné is a newly tenured Associate Professor of African American Studies and recently named Chair of the Theatre and Dance Department at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. Here, she continues her interdisciplinary approach to research, choreography, and pedagogy, teaching courses in dance technique, composition/choreography, and African American history and culture through the visual and performing arts. This interdisciplinary approach has been recognized through her award of the Individual Artist Fellowship Grant in Dance: Choreography from the TN Arts Commission in 2022. Her commitment to supporting artists extends beyond the classroom through her work as Assistant Director on the Dance/USA DFA program, supporting social justice artist practitioners around the US.

Her research centers the Black Radical Imagination as both artistic subject and embodied methodology. Recent creative work includes from their hands to ours: a continuum (Brave New Works Lab at OZ Arts Nashville, 2026), which explores how radical imagination has been an ongoing practice from ancestors surviving the Middle Passage to present-day freedom-building through live negro spirituals and movement. Her collaboration with Jacksonville Dance Theatre (where she serves as Resident Choreographer), cabins in the sky (2025), also examines this process as a staged performance. Other recent projects include Girl, Gurrl, GWORL: iterations of freedom, which challenges historic tropes of Black womanhood (the mammy, jezebel, and sapphire), and piece/peace, honoring joy as resistance, which was performed at the 2024 Kindling Arts Fest with her project-based collective, EArts—a training ground for emerging artists to perform professionally while honing their craft.

Beyond the classroom and stage, Eboné works as a fashion stylist and content creator, bringing her artistic vision and cultural expertise to diverse creative projects. Her role as creative director allows her to bridge the worlds of performance, visual aesthetics, and storytelling across multiple mediums.
