From its inception in 1993, with the active support of the dance community, New Works has accomplished a lot. Thanks in no small part to the efforts of the Board of Directors, Members, the Founders Council and staff, New Works has been a part of over a thousand productions, and has worked with hundreds of incredible artists. It has been my distinct pleasure to work with you all.

When I leave New Works the new Executive Director will continue the important work we started so long ago. I look forward to seeing you all at future New Works events, because as audience members you are an integral part of New Works’ offerings.

Speaking of Dance is an illustrated lecture series developed to enrich and deepen your experience of dance. These public lectures and discussion groups are a springboard for exchanging ideas and developing a deeper understanding of the world of dance and contextualizing the form in the broader Vancouver community and the world of art and culture. Presented by artists, curators, art historians, critics, writers, academics and other creative thinkers, this lecture series will give you the information, language and confidence you need to speak about dance.
