History
This study was commissioned and funded by the Canada Council for the Arts with an additional financial contribution from the Ontario Arts Council. Currently the Canadian Dance Assembly, the national service organization for dance, manages and maintains the map.
In 2011 the Canada Council for the Arts, in partnership with the Ontario Arts Council, launched the Canada Dance Mapping Study to identify, quantify and describe the ecology, economy and environment of dance in Canada. It was an initiative to investigate dance in its evolving state and in its multifaceted influences on the lives of Canadians. For more information continue reading HERE.

Remove any text in the Name Search field if you choose to use the fields instead. Use ctrl + scroll to zoom in and out. Click Reset to return to the initial view of the map.
