Thanks so much to everyone who came out to the Photo Ident-a-thon!
We are so grateful for everyone who turned up last week! The afternoon was spent reminiscing on some of Dancemakers most important contributors and works. We are so grateful for the opportunity to name and acknowledge the work of these pioneers of Canadian dance!
Thank you to Dance Collection Danse for hosting and facilitating the experience, and for taking such diligent care of the Dancemakers archive. Amy, Beth, Michael, Luke and Nick, we appreciate you!
Thank you to the folks at Buddies In Bad Times for the space and technical support! Katherine and Frankie, you’re the best!
Finally, to all the ✨dance makers✨ who showed up: it is an honour to continue the legacies you started in 1974. We hold this privilege with gratitude and care.
