PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FIELDWORK

An 8-week intensive focusing on helping artists develop strategies for self-management, self-production, fundraising and publicity. Implementing The Field's structure of peer support and feedback artists will set long and short term goals for their artistic careers, strengthen their support materials and identify goals and obstacles. Each participant will also have a one hour consultation with a professional in arts management. Applicants should have some self-production experience.

GUEST ARTIST FIELDWORK

In Guest Artist Fieldwork sessions, the participants receive feedback from invited members of the dance and theater communities. These sessions are especially important in establishing ties between established and emerging artists, as well as facilitating mentor/student dialogs within the community. These sessions are designed for the committed artist who has been creating/producing work for a minimum of 3 years. Past guest artists have included Joanna Haigood, Steven Pelton, Margaret Jenkins, Simone Forti, Jon Weaver, Sara Shelton Mann, Joe Goode, June Watanabe, K.T. Nelson, Joanna Harris, Ellen Sebastian Chang, Kevin Killian, Sheila Balter, Grace Wolcott and Anne Galjour.
