After two years in so-called Vancouver, self checkout is taking a leap : Lamont is taking on the role of Guest Curator for the 2024-2025 season of Dancemakers in Ontario.
self checkout is celebrating two years of growth among local communities on Coast Salish unceded territories. As it continues to evolve and shift, Lamont is dedicated to expanding the network of artists and information that enrich the work and uphold its value system.
For the 2024-2025 season, ideas cultivated over the past two years in so-called Vancouver will take root in Tkaranto, where Lamont will step into the role of Guest Curator with Dancemakers. With support from project consultants Celia Green and Danah Rosales, the work will begin by engaging with new queer, youth, art, and dance communities, gradually extending its reach to unite outreach initiatives with creative endeavors.
A very special thank you to Dancemakers' interim artistic producer Christina de la Cruz for her hands-on production and administrative support!
