Please be patient as we hammer out the bugs.

DCD has been preserving, sharing and celebrating Canada’s dance story for almost 40 years. Our collection, both physical and digital, is available to explore by anyone with an interest in dance and/or the people, events and times that shaped the dance past and inspire us today.
