Now Accepting Applications for Mentorships from November 2024 to November 2025
ArtsLink NB is now accepting applications for the next iteration of our standalone mentorship program. Artists of all disciplines who live in Atlantic Canada face the unique challenge of pursuing their practice from a marginalized area of the country.
Building networks through lifelong engagement in peer-to-peer and mentor-to-mentee discourse is vital to pursuing a career for any arts professional, but the need is especially high in New Brunswick.
Have you ever wondered how to live the most wonderful life? The Seven Teachings show us an ancient path to becoming the best version of ourselves.
They lead towards balance and respecting the inner and outer world around us, resulting in transformative growth. The contemporary dance work also known as Bears Stars and Trees is an energetic fusion of First Nations’ hoop dancing, contemporary dance, and ballet into one beautiful performance.
