For emerging artists in the performing arts disciplines
12 places available
Application deadline : July 31, 2022
We care about the vitality of performing artists' careers, that goes hand in hand with their sense of self-actualization.
Thanks to the generous financial assistance granted by the Conseil des arts et lettres du Québec as well as a sponsorship from the Caisse de la Culture, and after having tested the model with previous cohorts of artists in 2021, Confluence - CV is now opening a fourth cohort of the program Cohérence. This program is geared towards emerging artists from various performing arts disciplines and aims to facilitate the development of a complementary career (outside of the performing arts), that could lead to a lasting and satisfying parallel professional pathway.
Through the implementation of the Coherence program, Confluence - CV is pursuing its overarching goal of retaining artistic talent in their communities.
