Creation-Based Collaborations

There's a nifty program happening at the Canada Council for the Arts called Creation-Based Collaborations for dance. It's been heralded as one of the most successful funding projects around the international scene... see the Arts Research Monitor's paper Successful Dance Policies and Programs (Sept 2003) for more information.

"The objective of the program is to further vitalize the art form of dance by building strong relationships within the local, national and international dance milieux."

Presenters apply, but everyone benefits. Dance artists can create new work or remount work in new communities. The common goal is to enhance opportunities for artists and develop innovative ways of increasing public appreciation for Canadian dance.

Sound great? Click here for more details.
