Event Series Event Series (See All)

Produced by TOES FOR DANCE (@toesfordance), the 4th annual Common Ground Dance Festival includes energetic and grounded dance workshops for all levels in a variety of styles, compelling site performances that animate unexpected spaces, charming and evocative mainstage performances featuring both student and professional dancers with live music, and insightful artist talks through which audience members can connect with the inspiring dancers and choreographers who bring the festival to life!

The festival’s mission is intercultural, with programming that gathers a diverse constellation of Toronto’s artists and community members for the purpose of creating connection and shared understanding. We invite you to witness the beauty and power of multiple artistic expressions moving through a shared space, and to contribute your energy and presence to the experience. It is our hope that our friendly vibe, matched with the incredible talent of the artists on stage will move you, uplift you, challenge you to think in different ways, and inspire you.

Featured artists and choreographers include Dr. Sanjukta Banerjee and Harikishan S Nair, Groove Collective (Katelyn Bernard, Nia, Emma Rosborough, Kelly Gammie and Queenie Seguban), Prajakta Dravid – Atmika, Rakeem Hardy, Diana López and Victòria Mata, Barbara Simms, Sarah Hin Ching U, Raoul Wilke and Caroline ‘Lady C’ Fraser, and more TBA.
