Residencies at the Corner Brook Dance Hub

Residency lengths can vary from one-week to one-month based on availability at the Dance Hub and the artist’s needs. Contact us at connect@cornerbrookdancehub.com if you are thinking of a residency at Corner Brook Dance Hub and we can discuss scheduling and availability, and potential funding support/partnerships.

We offer up to three subsidized residencies per year to support emerging and established dance artists from outside of our region to develop projects and practices in our community. Artists are selected based on availability of spaces and resources in relation to their work plan, artist and project fit with our mission and values, demonstrated financial need, and continuity of relationships over time/community building potential.

The cost of a residency at Corner Brook Dance Hub is $1900 + HST per week.

This includes access to: 

  • 2 different studio spaces (approx 25 x 40 feet, and approx 15 x 25 feet) with sprung marley dance floors, stereo and projection equipment, and natural lighting 

  • the Dance Hub’s kitchenette and meeting spaces

  • artist accommodations through a local partner (private house with one or two bedrooms)

  • local transportation support may be possible, as determined on a case-by-case basis

In addition to supporting creative residencies in dance, we are also happy to work with your to find opportunities to engage our community of dancers and dance audiences. This can include masterclasses and workshops, formal or informal public presentations, working with local artists in creative research, etc. Full or partial subsidies may be available for dancers-in-residence who plan to engage the local dance community in meaningful ways.
