Dance Residency: Final Tuning - Winter 2025

Overview

The Final Tuning residency offers two dance companies the time, space, and resources in a spectacular mountain setting to take their previously developed work to the next stage. Selected companies will receive access to a Banff Centre dance studio for three weeks to work on rehearsing their proposed project. During the second and third weeks, artists will have access to either the recently renovated Jenny Belzberg Theatre, or the Margaret Greenham Theatre (as assigned), to begin implementing technical elements into their projects. Both companies will be given the opportunity to present their work (or work-in-progress) to the public.

A number of dance companies will reside on campus at the same time, working on their respective projects and enjoying opportunities for artistic connection and exchange. At the end of the program, participants have the option of opening their studio to share work in progress with other visiting artists and the broader Banff Centre community.
