  • "I support New Works because I believe in the way it uplifts and supports independent artists in our community with any range of experience. They are committed to providing residencies, educational programs, and performance opportunities. Their community engagement goes above and beyond and I am honoured to be a part of such an incredible organization."

  • By supporting New Works, we're supporting the artist as well as offering them potential performance platforms that might otherwise be out of their reach. [...] I firmly believe that the organization can expand and enhance this region's dance community.
    Brad Trenaman
    Board President
  • The integrated support that New Works offers is invaluable and has an ongoing impact on artists and arts organizations. I don't know if I would be doing the work I do today if it wasn't for that initial support that we received from New Works almost 20 years ago.

  • New Works was definitely a springboard for my career. Beginning in 2008 as an intern, I was immersed into the all things arts administration and was proud to be an integral part of the Canadian dance ecosystem.
    Andrea Hébert
    Board Member
  • I support New Works as a board member because independent dance artists need and deserve help and support.[...] I observe New Works making an impact in my community by offering many different forms of support, from performance platforms, to education, to one-on-one advice, to creative residencies, and so much more.
