Undercurrent Creations

Current staff listing: https://www.undercurrentcreations.ca/about

Undercurrent Creations is a small arts organization that dreams of a big world with joy, possibility, and freedom for everyone. Here in the not-too-distant present, we work toward that end through the creation of new theatrical work, films, community-engaged arts projects, and changemaking initiatives.

We see artistic creation as a means of fostering community dialogue and transformation at every opportunity – in creation, in sharing with audiences, and beyond. We believe that artistic processes that enable us to better understand ourselves, our communities, our ancestral lives, and our possible futures, is a kind of social justice work: healing and action in one, that moves us all closer to liberation.

We interrogate the status quo of society, and the arts sector within, and offer interventions. We develop initiatives that imagine new ways to collaborate and create together, grounded in equity and access.

Undercurrent Creations is based on Dish With One Spoon Territory, on land that has been stewarded since time immemorial by the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, Wendat and other nations. Resisting the ongoing harms of colonialism is a central preoccupation of our work and we hold ourselves accountable to past, present and future Indigenous leaders as we work toward social, environmental, and economic justice, through the arts. (undercurrentcreations.ca)
