FRESH AiR 2011

AiR PROJECT presents 

FRESH AiR
Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 March 2011

FRESH AiR is an initiative from Queen Mary, University of London, produced in collaboration with the Live Art Development Agency, offering recent graduates and emergent artists support, advice and professional development.

FRESH AiR features the FRESH AiR PLATFORM (an open submissions performance platform, mentoring, and critical feedback for programmed artists) and FRESH TIPS (a day of information and advice from experienced artists).

FRESH AiR is part of Queen Mary’s wider Artists in Residence (AiR) project – an in-house initiative to sustain established Live Art practitioners, support emerging artists, and invest in the spaces that nurture their work and audiences.

FRESH AiR developed out of the East End Collaborations project – details here.

FRESH AiR PLATFORM
Saturday 12 March from 18.00

The FRESH AiR PLATFORM is an opportunity for ten emerging artists to introduce their work to audiences. The FRESH AiR PLATFORM will take place in a range of spaces at Queen Mary, University of London.
