Inspired Talent Growth Year Review

Supporting the next generation of dance

The support of artists and aspiring professional dancers is a vital part of dance development locally, regionally and nationally. We recognise the importance of fostering talent and the important part that artists can play as role models.

Supporting the next generation of dance creatives through a variety of pathways including two membership schemes that are designed to provide professional development opportunities to support, sustain and inspire dancers, artists, teachers and makers has been an amazing highlight for 2021 talent growth.

2021 saw us launch our Dance Surrey Directory and Dance Surrey PRO programme, the Supported and Associate Artist programme and continue to offer Creative Industry Insights and CPD workshops whilst creating clear career pathways for our members.

The choreographer’s vision was so inspiring
