Note: Artists must have previously produced two works in order to participate.
LiftOff Workshops strive to create a safe and intimate space to receive feedback that supports the artist’s aesthetics and explore resources to enable project development. The workshop encourages dance and performance that explores cross over disciplines such as spoken word, visual art, video and sound manipulation. The group has a limited number of participants in order to allow for short and longer works to be shared and to promote dialogue. During the workshop three guests from the “industry” are invited to participate in the feedback process including choreographers, performance artists, composers, lighting designers, visual artists and presenters.

Applications are now being accepted for the 31st Annual Performance Mix Festival, to be held in spring 2017 (dates and venue TBA).
The Performance Mix Festival presents physically based experimental performance, as well as video works. We program works up to 15 minutes for one evening, but we will consider longer works, as well as multiple performances. Artists receive a fee, complimentary video documentation, and rehearsal space.
The application deadline is October 3, 2016.
Previous Performance Mix Festival artists should wait one year before reapplying.

“Performance Mix is such a great resource, and I was really grateful to be supported in presenting two of my works this year! I think the real multiplicity of artists involved in all senses is a continued strength of the program.”
