The Lithuanian Dance Information Centre Starts a New Project

А new joint initiative led by partners from Lithuania, Latvia & Estonia has received the support from the Nordic kulturkontakt Nordic-Baltic Mobility Programme for Culture (Long-term Network) to establish the project “Baltic Dance Network: Navigating Identity in the Face of Changes”.

Baltic Dance Network aims to create a safe space for Baltic contemporary dance artists to connect and analyse their shared past, explore Baltic dance identity, as well as understand each Baltic country’s context and uniqueness. Together we aim to recognize and express historical legacies, enhancing confidence in the international dance field, and empowering artists to reflect current political or other challenges through their art.

In 2025-2026, Baltic Dance Network will host a series of activities across the Baltic region, including Professional Meetings, Workshops, and a Visiting Program for dance artists. Additionally, there will be Online Discussions and Workshops, Short-term Residencies (small and extended), and a Dance Congress which will enrich the Baltic Dance Platform which will take place in Vilnius in 2026.

The Network consists of six approved partners: Lithuanian Dance Information Center (the leader of the project), Contemporary Dance Association (Lithuania), Latvijas Dejas Informacijas centrs / dance.lv, Horeogrāfu Asociācija (Latvia), Sõltumatu Tantsu Lava (Estonia), Estonian Dance Art and Dance Education Union.
