Mission
With a focus on live art practices, we seek to create a community connecting the local with broader networks of artists and audience. With a focus on artists who produce work outside mainstream or normative arts institutions, our plans are to foster outstanding and astounding multi-disciplinary research, experimentation and art production. Our goal is to create opportunities for both local, national and international artists working in the areas of live art and performance art, contemporary dance, participatory practice and artist film and video.
