Good Women Dance is accepting submissions for our Creative Incubator series, a week-long creation workshop facilitated by local dance and theatre artist Amber Borotsik. Artists will bring their current ideas and interests and be able to work surrounded by the creative energy and input of their peers and community members. The Creative Incubator is free and open to all disciplines.
The workshop will run April 27-May 1, 2020 between 9am and 4pm at the Ruth Carse Centre for Dance (11205 107 Avenue).
The week will include facilitated exercises, sharing, and discussion between participants, opportunities for collaboration, and an informal public showing/sharing.
Please note: Successful applicants are required to be available to attend all 5 days of the Creative Incubator, including the public showing/sharing.
Prepare to question and be questioned, to explore, to collaborate, and to find new and exciting pathways and processes for you and your work.
