Producing Big Ideas: From the Ground Up

with Dan Watson and NYA

As an arts service organization, North York Arts (NYA) is often approached to develop partnerships with individuals and collectives who require mentorship to bring their big ideas to fruition. This full-day workshop will provide a step by step overview of what is required to develop successful programming from a production standpoint. This workshop is designed for community organizers who want to use arts to engage their community, as well as artists seeking feedback on their ideas. This workshop will provide an opportunity for artists and communities to network and build partnerships on-site that will help move their ideas forward. Participants are encouraged to bring their ideas and time will be spent on developing these on-site. Breakout sessions will allow for one-on-one feedback.

If you would like to submit any ideas for projects beforehand to be provided with specific feedback on November 11th, fill out the form and tell us about your idea: https://goo.gl/forms/jpupYaGQOuckB73N2
