We are also pleased to tell you that Steve Beatty, head of Performing Arts for Front Row, will personally take the lead on programs relevant to Dance Ontario. Many of you already know Steve as he has been an active participant in the arts world for more than 20 years through his sponsorships and continued advice to producers, boards, and performers. Indeed, we have worked with Steve for at least 15 years and can testify to his good advice and expertise in entertainment insurance. We are happy to have his support for our members.
We plan to contact all members through email to explain in more detail the specific insurance benefits, so keep an eye out for these letters and notes. For now, I can tell you the following:
- Simply go to stagelive.frontrowinsurance.com
- Front Row’s actONE program will be renamed DART and offer enhanced coverage for Dance Ontario members
- In November Front Row will launch their specialized Protégé: Arts Education Insurance Program designed to protect studio owners, instructors, and students involved in dance education against claims of abuse and harassment, as well as providing property protection and liability coverage
We look forward to offering you extended insurance benefits as members of Dance Ontario.
