Dancemakers

y for a sustainable and inclusive future. The following Vision and Values are based on the community mandate aimed to heal and transform Dancemakers, ensuring that it remains relevant to Ontario’s broader dance community. We will honour Dancemakers’ past contributions while aspirationally addressing the critical need for change. Dancemakers is a decentralized community-led dance organization that focuses on the research and development of dance makers to deepen, revitalize, or transform their practice and form. Through residencies and partnerships with other dance organizations, Dancemakers provides a range of resources to creators, working across genres of dance, seeking innovation in their practice towards the development of new performance works. Curatorial decisions are made by a rotating committee of dance practitioners to ensure that the broadest community of dancers and choreographers are being served. Dancemakers engages with the public through a variety of activities aimed at illuminating dance practice and form through the creative process of the dance maker.
