DIY@DIV is an initiative by dance artist and DIY/indie producer Deanna Peters/Mutable Subject, co-organized with dance artist Rianne Svelnis and multimedia artist Ahmed Khalil. The DIY@DIV artists will be selected/co-curated by dance artists Carolina Bergonzoni, Jeanette Kotowich and Kevin Fraser. We see many opportunities for dance beyond traditional 'marketplace' models and we have resources to share!

DIY@DIV is an opportunity for 4 movement-based artists/artist groups, from any form or stage in their career, to share current work, to put their indie producer chops to use and to work with and support each other. Running November 22–25, 2017, each artist/group will have one date to share their work, but bringing DIY@DIV to audiences will be a group effort, with selected artists, supported by event organizers and curators, contributing their skills and resources to their own, as well as to each other's events.

DIY@DIV will provide performance/rehearsal/community space. Limited technical support can be negotiated (access to some lights, projector, projection screen and basic sound equipment). The curated artists will bring their artistic work, as well as guide event planning, organizing, promoting and hosting. Audiences will gain access to engaging live art at affordable prices, with 100% of profits from all four shows being divided equally between the four curated projects. Each show will feature a social event, shaped around the unique desires/interests of the artist(s), for conversation and opportunities to meet someone new!

Organized alongside The Dance Centre's Dance In Vancouver biennale, DIY@DIV offers even more opportunities to see what's going on in the Vancouver dance scene and beyond. Let's hang out, learn from and be with each other!

Applications are due Sep 5, 2017, 11:59pm PST. All applicants will be notified by Sep 15, 2017, 11:59pm PST.
