Artist Development

At Chameleon, we’re committed to raising the bar for dance in the region. To us, this means nurturing and supporting a diverse community of Dance Artists with different voices, histories and stories. Our Artist Development programme celebrates this commitment.

Each season we offer a variety of training opportunities both in the studio and online. From workshops and mentoring to showcases and commissions, our Artist Development programme is carefully curated to respond to the needs of Dance Artists across the region.

Here’s a taster of what the programme offers.
