Dance//Novella is a non-profit organization dedicated to the research and development of contemporary dance theater. We believe that by developing daring societal stories and concepts that challenge and inspire the performer and viewer, we can positively engage humanity while sharing our stories in the 21st century. A large part of what motivates Dance//Novella is the idea of collaboration, not only with other dance artists but cross-disciplinary partnerships that engage and uplift all artists involved. We believe in making dance accessible for a wider audience and seek to do so in balance with a high level of artistic merit.

The purposes of the Society are:

- To advance the public’s appreciation of the arts by providing high-quality artistic contributions in contemporary dance through performance and inclusive workshops in North Vancouver and nationwide.

- To advance the public’s appreciation of contemporary dance by incorporating other art forms such as, visual art, poetry, music composition/sound design and digital media.

- To undertake activities ancillary and incidental to the attainment of the above charitable purpose.
