We’re totally delighted to be working with the Live Art Development Agency on DIY7, the latest incarnation of their innovative artist-to-artist development programme:
“DIY is an opportunity for artists working in Live Art to conceive and run unusual training and professional development projects for other artists.We want to hear from you if have an idea for an exciting, innovative and idiosyncratic Live Art professional development project that offers something new and is geared to the eclectic and often unusual needs of artists whose practices are grounded in challenging and unconventional approaches, forms and concepts.DIY 7 builds on the strengths of previous DIY schemes which have proved to be invaluable experiences for project leaders, participants and organisers alike, and this year we are delighted to welcome even more partner organisations on board.”
We’re hoping to be hosting one of this year’s DIY projects at Forest Fringe in Edinburgh this summer as part of a whole new strand of projects that challenge us to think about the space we have and Edinburgh as a whole in a totally different way. So if you have even an inkling of an idea for a strange and provocative new development programme for artists that you think might find a home in or around Edinburgh during the festival, please do have a look at the Call For Proposals, And feel free to email us if you have any questions specifically relating to Edinburgh and Forest Fringe.
