How It Works

Artists are selected by a jury to perform in three live showcases for an audience of arts organizations (presenters) seeking to book acts to tour to their communities in 2027/28 and beyond. Following the conference, Manitoba Arts Network coordinates block-booked tours of the showcasing artists throughout the province based on interest generated at Manitoba Showcase.
