Fieldwork: Multidisciplinary

  • Andy Art Center 3000 Fenkell Avenue Detroit, MI, 48238 United States (map)

This workshop is for any kind of time-based performance : music, dance, theater, puppetry, spoken word. If you need a deadline to begin, deadlines to work up to a public performance, or could use some perspective on what you are making, this is it; this is for you.

Fieldwork is a place and time for performing artists to learn about their work, develop their ability to give feedback, and build a community of artistic peers. You will get responses to what you are making in a way that respects the intent of the work and allows you to discover your own solutions.
