Open call from Artist Access Program
Friday, October 22, 2021 by Tai Moses
The city’s Artist Access Program is now accepting applications from emerging and established performance artists for its Fiscal Year 2023 program. The program, which “provides free or low-cost use of space, available equipment and staff expertise to artists and musicians through an annual adjudicated process,” was created from a Council directive to use hotel tax funds to expand hours at city-owned cultural centers. Artists and arts organizations benefit from expanded rehearsal hours as well as the opportunity to produce public performances for free or at a reduced rental fee of $1 per ticket sold. Find more details here and an application here. The deadline to apply is Dec. 15.
