« Native Earth is proud to be a partnering organization of the new initiative RISING TIDES. RISING TIDES is a multi-faceted skill development platform designed for IBPOC arts administrators and managers to build connections, awareness, and learning exchanges within the IBPOC arts administration community. Led by PACT (Professional Association of Canadian Theatres), Native Earth Performing Arts, Obsidian Theatre, Urban Ink, Green Thumb Theatre, Pacific Theatre, and Nightwood Theatre, the RISING TIDES program intends to fill a gap in the national performing arts sector towards development and training for emerging/developing IBPOC administrators and managers, specific to the needs of this community.

RISING TIDES will pair emerging administrators with an established arts administrator for this paid virtual learning exchange taking place from September 2022 – September 2023. Working in tandem with Open Door, RISING TIDES will be facilitated and self-directed by the participants, feature guest panel discussions, as well as optional volunteer cohort meetings through the Open Door Initiative. »

Application Deadline: June 30, 2022 at 11:59PM EST
