Presenting in the North
Northeastern and northwestern Ontario continue to be vibrant presenting regions that have been connecting remote audiences with local, national and international artists for more than 20 years. Their adult and young audience community networks, run by dedicated volunteers, are committed to bringing high-quality performances to their small and mid-sized performance spaces throughout the season. Ontario Presents is privileged to support the following networks:
Northern Adult Volunteer Presenter Network (NAVP)
The NAVP is a sub-network of Ontario Presents who work independently to plan several tours to their northern communities that otherwise would not have access to diverse, professional and entertaining performing arts experiences. Ontario Presents supports this independent NAVP with touring support, skills training and network development when necessary.
