Projects may include:

– Live streams of media or performance works
– Digital workshops or artist talks
– Creation & documentation of sculpture/installation works on your own property*
* While current physical distancing measures are in place, we will accept proposals for installations made on public-facing properties, but will not publicize their specific locations.
