Indigenous Performing Arts Residency
The deadline for this opportunity has passed.
Banff Centre is committed to the development, and production of new works in all major performance disciplines and encourages bold collaborations. Indigenous performing arts residencies are designed for Indigenous artists to work on the initial creation phase of a new work in one or more of our studio spaces.
