BC Movement Arts Society

BC Movement Arts Society BCMAS is establishing annual contemporary dance series held throughout the year. In dance, we believe there is no substitute for live performance.

Based in Sointula on Malcolm island, the BC Movement Arts Society (BCMAS) brings rural and urban together by presenting professional local, national and international contemporary dance performances, creation residencies to rural areas of BC. Based in Sointula on Malcolm island, the BC Movement Arts Society (BCMAS) brings rural and urban together by presenting professional local, national and inte

rnational contemporary dance performances, creation residencies to rural areas of British Columbia. BCMAS is one of the few professional dance organizations based in and serving rural and remote under-served communities, and we are honoured to be located within the unceded Kwakwaka’wakw territories of the ‘Namgis, Kwakiutl, and Mamalilikala Nations. Small rural cities and coastal communities are largely deprived of this opportunity and it is very expensive for people living in these areas to travel to large urban centres to see Canadian and international professional dance performances. Our presentation series moving forward will include for each artist/company presented in addition to our home base of Malcolm Island, shows in neighbouring Port McNeill (at the GateHouse Theatre) and the ‘Namgis Nation/Alert Bay (in the Laurence Ambers Memorial Recreation Center). Led by a professional seasoned dance artist, festival director and arts manager
(Mary-Louise Albert) as well as a professional artistic associate (dancer/choreographer Rebecca Margolick), Advisor's (Andrea Cranmer, ‘Namgis cultural teacher and spiritual leader), Annemarie Koch (community leader) and Livona Ellis (programming advisor) and a Board of Directors versed in professional, education, and business operations: (Artemis Gordon, Pamela Rosa, Dr. Michael Margolick, Laurie Rowan and Brenda Jemar).

This is the week, North Island 🎉🌊
The ‘Source Amnesia’ tour starts this week, and we can’t wait to welcome you.

Joshua Beamish/MOVETHECOMPANY brings this striking contemporary dance work to Sointula, Courtenay, and Campbell River, presented by BC Movement Arts Society as part of the North Island Contemporary Dance Series.

Performed by Ariana Barr, Emma Galvin, Tristan Ghostkeeper, Justin Rapaport and Calder White, ‘Source Amnesia’ explores misinformation, memory loss, and truth through fast-moving, precise choreography that feels both urgent and deeply human.

Review Vancouver writes that the work “moves from a quiet start into a demanding fast paced choreography,” while audiences often describe leaving the theatre buzzing with conversation – the kind of show you want to talk about with friends afterward.

📍 Sointula – March 11 – FO Hall – 7:45pm
📍 Courtenay – March 13 – Regier Theatre – 7:30pm
📍 Campbell River – March 15 – Tidemark Theatre – 7:30pm
