"…where Black history meets contemporary movement, and 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, Kindling Fest, Brave New Works, Frist Museum and Jacksonville Dance Theatre. She has also had the pleasure of working with notable dance programs across the south such as Jacksonville University, Middle TN State University and Western Kentucky University.

Eboné is currently a newly tenured Associate Professor of African American Studies in the Theatre and Dance Dept. at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. Here, she continues her interdisciplinary approach to her 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 latest projects are also a clear manifestation of this philosophy. Her solo project, Girl, Gurrl, GWORL: iterations of freedom, challenges the inaccuracies of the black female 'self' as depicted in three historic tropes; the mammy, jezebel and sapphire. Her latest collaboration with Jacksonville Dance Theatre (where she serves as Resident Choreographer), Cabins in the Sky, explores the embodiment of the Black radical imagination as praxis premiered in January 2025. Her newest piece, piece/peace, seeks to honor joy as resistance and was performed by her project-based dance collective, EArts, which serves as a training ground for emerging artists to perform professionally while honing their craft. This work was featured in the Kindling Arts Fest, Nashville’s home for radically unique, independent artists.
