LE PRIX ETHEL BRUNEAU - Ethel Bruneau Award
Presented by
Dance Dance and Dr Sheila Linden
Since 2019, the Ethel Bruneau Prize is dedicated to highlighting, year after year, dance artists and practitioners whose contributions have gone unrecognized. It was created with the aim of offering an updated narrative of dance. Presented by Danse Danse and Dr. Sheila Linden in memory of Eva Von Gencsy, this prize comes with a $5,000 grant.
