Call for Guest Curators
Dancemakers
Canada
Calling all artists: Dancemakers is seeking 2-3 Guest Curators to select, support and contextualize dance programming for artistic development and public sharing for the 2024-2025 season!
Guest Curators are encouraged to dream projects into being that may not be feasibly supported in more traditional performance venues, companies or festivals. Site-specific projects, projects outside of the downtown core, projects that engage with and integrate communities/audiences, projects that deeply consider the curatorial context of the work and that engage with a range of dance forms will be prioritized.
Guest Curators play a vital role in the re-emergence of Dancemakers as it continues to move forward in becoming a community-led and decentralized company – living inside of and responding to larger contextual realities and needs. We are explicitly looking to support various dance forms, performances that engage with land, social issues and that centre BIPOC voices. We are interested in curatorial projects that are able to answer “why this now?”
