Dance Artists Needed

We’re looking for 10 professional/aspiring professional dance artists or facilitators to take part in a research project.

Patricia Verity Suarez, Middlesbrough based Movement Director, is working in collaboration with Amy Swalwell from TeesDance and Middlesbrough Council to strengthen the infrastructure for dance through the ‘Middlesbrough Dance Sector Development’ project.

The project aims to lead the way to a stronger, more vibrant and diverse dance sector in Middlesbrough. For us to do this, we need to understand what the current strengths are as well as identifying where there are gaps in provision, resources, training and professional opportunities needed for the sector to grow.

We are after artists, practitioners, facilitators or teachers to help use with our research in creating a ’10 Year Vision for Dance in Middlesbrough’.

Those selected to take part in the research will complete a short survey and attend either a group session or 1:1 with a small fee to cover expenses and time.

For more information please visit: https://teesdance.co.uk/takepart/ Please express your interest by Wednesday 4 August at 5pm.

If you have any questions, need any access support or would like an informal chat, please contact Amy – amy@teesdance.co.uk

Artist Breakfast - Middlesbrough

Happening on at the same venue, on the same day… is Dance City’s Artist Breakfast!

Why not join Dance City for breakfast before the research session to meet, network and chat with local artists.

Please note you can attend this Artist Breakfast without being part of our research – it’s a stand-alone event. 

When: 11th August 

Where: Middlesbrough Town Hall

Time: 8.30am-10am!

Joining the conversation will be Anand Bhatt, Artistic Director and CEO of Dance City, Phil Douglas, Director of Artistic Programmes and Artist Development, and Alex Anslow, Producer.
