Artistic Director - Fall for Dance North

Fall For Dance North is Toronto’s premier professional international dance festival modelled on the New York Festival. FFDN is commencing a search for a highly accomplished Artistic Director with outstanding credentials and experience as a performing arts curator, a fundraiser, and an administrator with a love of the arts and a passion for dance.

Launched in 2015, FFDN aimed to whet Toronto’s dance appetite and inspire audiences to seek out more dance throughout the year. FFDN’s first festival was praised for its energy: “It felt like the audience’s collective enthusiasm and joy would blow the roof off the Sony Centre.”

FFDN has been twice named by the Globe and Mail as a cultural event of the year. And in 2021, a dance critic remarked, “As this festival inevitably always does, it gave us new perspectives and cracked open the world of dance a little more.” Existing to break boundaries and remove barriers, FFDN is proud to be Toronto’s premier professional international dance festival.

As FFDN celebrates its 10th Anniversary in 2024 it seeks to continue all that has been achieved since the inception of the Festival. As an organization, FFDN looks to the future with optimism and a dedication to further innovation. They continue to nurture emerging artists, spark new collaborations, commission new work, deepen their education program, and develop their international presenters’ network. And throughout, they work to demonstrate their foundational belief in the absolute beauty of pluralism in their art form.

As FFDN begins the next exciting phase of its development, it is important that they continue to be guided by a Board-approved plan that supports the artistic vision and course for the festival; however, FFDN acknowledges the ever-changing landscape as the pandemic’s impact continues to unfold.
