Submit a project
With our arrival in Édifice Wilder – Espace danse, our renewed artistic vision aims to support emerging, local artists (though not exclusively) in the earlier phases of creating their own performance works. We favour imaginative strategies for audience engagement and experimental work that questions traditional forms of presentation.
Depending on your profile, one of two options is available: New Waves, for freshly graduated dance artists, or the open call for local artists.

If you live and work outside of Montréal but within Canada, contact our curator. You might be able to meet her at various events.
If you are an artist living outside of Canada, due to our primary commitment to local artists, we advise you to not submit a project unless you have previously developed a relationship with Tangente. If you travel to Montréal, our curator would be pleased to meet you in person.
