Calls for submissions

Studio 303 supports emerging practices in contemporary dance and interdisciplinary performance. We give priority to emerging or mid-career artists based in Montreal. If you are an established artist or from out of town, please specify reasons for wanting to work at Studio 303 in particular.

Some of our programming is done by invitation, such as SPARK Series, exchange residencies, or other special projects. The following is our open call for submissions. If the format of our calls (PDF, Google form) presents an accessibility challenge for you, please contact info@studio303.ca

PROFESSIONAL WORKSHOPS — 2025-26 SEASON // October 1–November 4, 2024

We program more than one year in advance, and our decisions are usually made in late fall every year. We are seeking eclectic teachers – local and visiting – to facilitate workshops for professional art-makers in Montreal. These generally take place in the mornings over one week and occasionally on weekends.

Summer Residency: Up to 100 hours of access to the studio/equipment for artists working on collaborative or cross-disciplinary projects. The projects are selected by a committee including former artists in residence.
