The SPARC Symposium is a biennial gathering that brings together SPARC members as well as other creators, presenters, producers, community animators and funders involved in the performing arts in rural and remote communities across Ontario. The symposium provides an opportunity for peer-to-peer knowledge sharing, networking, and laying the groundwork for future collaborations.
Le Symposium de la SPARC est un rassemblement biennal qui réunit les membres de la SPARC ainsi que d’autres créateurs, diffuseurs, producteurs, animateurs communautaires et bailleurs de fonds impliqués dans les arts de la scène dans les collectivités rurales et éloignées de l’Ontario. Le symposium offre l’occasion de partager les connaissances entre pairs, de créer des réseaux et de jeter les bases d’une collaboration future.
