This project seeks to uncover and share the untold stories of the dancers, choreographers, designers, administrators and their friends and family members who were profoundly affected by the HIV/AIDS crisis
DCD does more than keep Canada’s dance history – we search for it and provide researchers the opportunities and tools to discover stories for themselves, the community, and the collection.
Because dance was the fastest growing art form in Canada during the 1970s, 50 years later, DCD is facing the greatest demand in our history to care for the archival materials of the artists from the 1970s dance boom.
Ashley’s research will focus on the popular dance style known as Waacking and its original name Punking. Her research aims to highlight alternative contributors, creators, and practitioners of the Punking/Whacking/Waacking dance form
Dancemakers alumni (artistic directors, dancers, choreographers, designers, production staff, managers, etc), particularly from the first 30 years
Join Amy Bowring for a conversation with artist, educator, and scholar Collette Murray. Collette will discuss her Ph.D. research on dance education and anti-racist dance pedagogies.
If you’re in the Carlton and Yonge neighbourhood, feel free to drop into the DCD office to see one of Blanche Lund’s dresses from the 1950s. Our office entranceway is currently displaying a small exhibit about Alan and Blanche Lund that had been on display in the Community Exhibits Program at Queen’s Park.
Three Decades of Dance. This digital exhibit is the sister to the live exhibit that ran in Vancouver’s Scotiabank Dance Centre lobby from October 21 to November 18, 2023. All 30 subjects shine a light on New Works’ incredible legacy in the West coast dance community.
