Part of the Small World Music Society and Indigenous Performing Arts Alliance (IPAA): eMERGEnce Workshop Series.

eMERGEnce is Small World Music’s (SWM) artist development program for under-represented and marginalized newcomer, refugee, and emerging artists, dedicated to supporting career sustainability and integration into Toronto’s music landscape and the Canadian cultural infrastructure. A Cohort of 24 musicians were chosen from a pool of applicants to participate in the inaugural year’s program, which includes career-development workshops, networking opportunities, music incubation, collateral creation, mentorship, and performance opportunities.

Indigenous Performing Arts Alliance (IPAA) Workshop Series is designed to inform and educate BIPOC artists on a range of topics across the performing arts. To register for the Series, follow IPAA on Facebook or Twitter or at ipaa.ca.

Workshops and Info Sessions are part of SWM’s eMERGEnce Artist Development Program and IPAA’s Workshop Series. Limited space for non-participants:

For workshops: $10 tickets can be purchased via Showpass
For Info Sessions: Registration via Showpass

All activities take place at the Small World Music Centre (Artscape Youngplace, 180 Shaw St #101), and are followed by informal opportunities to engage with cohort members, panellists, experts, and other guests. Topics/dates subject to change.

We are grateful for the funding support we’ve received from The Foundation Assisting Canadian Talent On Recordings (FACTOR), the Government of Canada and Canada’s private radio broadcasters, and the Toronto Arts Council, which enable us to waive workshop fees for eMERGEnce and Indigenous Performing Arts Alliance (IPAA) Workshop Series participants.
