DANCE ALL YEAR LONG

How would you feel if your city had professional dance artists working? DANCE ALL YEAR LONG is a mobile customized dance platform created by Taneli Törmä - LOCATION X offered for different cities. Together with these municipalities, it supports local and international dance artists with residencies or gives them the opportunity to present their work inside the festival program. This POP-UP dance platform can be created for each city for 12 months or 1 week intensive period of time.

The goal of the project is to create new bridges for contemporary dance and to find new audiences and collaboration partners for it - a platform for curating new perspectives and views about dance.
Presentations are always free of charge for our audience and artists can choose what kind of artistic output they want to share. For example, the sharing can be in a form of a performance, lecture, installation or dance video.
