Thrilled to team up with Dance Together Project, The Artist Symposium is back January 16, revamped and refreshed for 2026! Join us for a series of discussions followed by a party and live music jam! This professional development and connective event centres dance professionals - practicing artists, producers, collaborators and educators, and is welcome to all ages and career stages.

Attend FREE, donate optional! Proceeds will directly benefit the 2026 editions of the Dance Together Festival and the Toronto International Tap Dance Festival. 

Please RSVP and consider a PWYC option that feels comfortable for you!

Due to the weather, we have moved the discussions entirely online, and we'll postpone our party & jam. 

Please RSVP below and we'll send you a Zoom link on Friday morning!

Confirmed Panelists: 

1-2:30pm: Tafiyah Itiaba-Baya (Toronto Arts Council), Noora Sarwala (Canada Council for the Arts), and David Barnard (Department of Canadian Heritage).

2:45-4:15pm: Sofi Gudiño (Dusk Dances), Josh Grossman (Toronto Downtown Jazz), and Katya Kuznetsova (Dance Together Festival).
