MATCHING FUNDS CAMPAIGN
JOIN OUR CAMPAIGN TO DIGITALLY SHARE DCD'S COLLECTION!

It is now time for our annual spring campaign. This year we are focussing on an exciting digital project – DCD DIGITAL!

DCD was recently awarded our second Digital Strategy Fund grant from the Canada Council for the Arts towards the testing and launch of this sophisticated online archive.

In the current state of the world, digital communication has never been so important and will continue to be so as we move into the future. DCD DIGITAL will allow us to digitize and share our collection as well as material from contributing museums, archives, universities, artists, arts organizations, and the public.

We are excited to announce that we have private matching funds of $10,000 to help reach our goal of $20,000 to assist with crucial next steps in the development of DCD DIGITAL.

We hope we can count on you to support this substantial move towards an all access digital archive system! And with matching funds, your donation will go twice as far.

As we are currently not working from the office, we are encouraging people to donate online through CanadaHelps.

DCD HALL OF FAME

DCD Hall of Fame

POSTPONED

Dance Collection Danse has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2020 DCD Hall of Fame. We also canceled planned workshops and an inductee panel. We joined other organizations in our civic duty to help slow the spread of COVID-19. We will celebrate the same wonderful group of inductees in March 2021. (MORE)
