Are you a multidisciplinary Indigenous, black or person of colour performing artist or ally working with IBPOC artists? Do you have work ready to tour? We invite you to submit!
With funding from the Canada Council for the Arts, Ontario Arts Council, Toronto Arts Council and the Department of Canadian Heritage, the wind in the leaves collective (witlc – https://windintheleavescollective.com/ibpoc-touring-network) is working with various presenters and producers to set up a touring network supporting multidisciplinary IBPOC artists and those who work with them.

Each organization is very interested in supporting IBPOC and allied artists and understands the importance of presenting this work to their current audience and, as well, to build their audiences.
Your video submissions will be presented to project partners and partner communities as tour-ready work at Fall for Dance North (FFDN) in October, and will be considered for the 2026/27 iteration of the IBPOC Network Tour. (The Presentation date for FFDN at Native Earth Performing Arts is still to be confirmed but will be in mid to late October.)
