About Us

Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Live Art Dance is the only dance presenter in Atlantic Canada to program an annual contemporary dance series featuring national and international calibre artists. Our performance season generally runs from late September through early May.

Performances take place in a variety of locations including: the Sir James Dunn Theatre, the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium, the Spatz Theatre, and other locations.

Live Art Dance supports the development of dance in Nova Scotia by coordinating Master Classes, workshops and artist talks with visiting artists. We are an integrated part of Canada's national dance milieu and an instigator of local performance projects.

Live Art Dance is a founding member of the CanDance Network and is a member of the Canadian Dance Assembly, the Atlantic Presenter's Association, and Dance Nova Scotia.
