Launched nationally on 1 September, 2020, STAND was created during and in response to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in South Africa by individuals within the arts sector. The aim is to nurture, promote and celebrate contemporary South African dance and theatre and to provide opportunities for those who make their livelihoods within the dance and theatre sector to continue to practice their craft and earn an income.
