The Corporation of Massey Hall and Roy Thomson Hall is proud to announce the launch of its first-ever Artist in Residence program and the inaugural group of participating artists who will hold this esteemed position: Celeigh Cardinal, Sebastian Gaskin, and Julian Taylor.
This year-long residency will take place across multiple spaces throughout Allied Music Centre and is its first ongoing residency program that offers comprehensive support, including mentorship, studio time, live performance opportunities, creative collaborations, and professional development at Allied Music Centre – Canada’s newest cultural ecosystem and home of Massey Hall.
This initiative, dedicated to the exceptional participating artists, is being developed in consultation with members of the Indigenous music community, including the Indigenous Music Office, sākihwe festival, Tkaronto Music Festival and the International Indigenous Music Summit.
This inaugural Artist in Residence program is made possible through the generous support of a donor advised fund with Canada Gives, whose principal has committed to creating opportunities and supporting Indigenous artists at Massey Hall.
