OPPORTUNITIES

WE ARE HIRING!

We are hiring a local Calgary/Area powwow or contemporary dancer who can dance Fancy Shawl and Jingle Dress. This person should be open to learning and helping create team dances in both styles. The dancer must have their own vehicle. Depending on the performance, we offer $100-$500 per show, and we often provide mileage and hotels for out-of-town performances. This is a contract position and each show has its own contract. Shows often happen in December, May, June, July, and September. Shows are not guaranteed during these times, it is only when we receive more bookings.

 

We often travel across country for touring performances and provide flights or mileage and per diems for touring opportunities. 

​

We ask that the dancer shows up to regular rehearsals and arrive to shows 60 minutes prior to start time.

There will be a trial period as well to see if the dancer is a good fit for the team.  

​

Please submit an email of interest and a video of yourself dancing to wildmintarts@gmail.com. Deadline for applications is January 30th, 2026.
