PERFORMANCE. PARTICIPATION. POSSIBILITY.
The Festival of New Dance is more than a performance series. Over four days, experience six compelling contemporary dance performances and participatory workshops featuring artists from Newfoundland and Labrador and across Canada. Across five days, our Writers, Makers & Illustrators in Residence invite audiences to explore, question, create, and respond through Response Labs, workshops, and conversations that open new ways of engaging with dance.
