Guest Curator Model
A year-long working group exploring Dance Curation as a practice and role.
This group of independent dance curators will attend all of Dancemakers’ programming as well as other relevant programs across the GTA to experience, reflect, discuss and engage with dance curators working in the field. Throughout the year, they will work with invited guests to discuss various emergent practices found within dance curation.
