PICA is seeking expressions of interest for our 2023 and 2024 performance program.
Calling for proposals from contemporary performance makers for performance projects in and around PICA. This includes performance seasons, one-off performances or creative developments.
Each year, PICA aims to present contemporary arts projects that create career-defining moments for artists, life-changing experiences for audiences of all ages and critical turning points in the advancement of art forms. In doing so, PICA focuses on projects that will make a significant impact for artists and audiences.
So… Who Should Apply?
Proposals from artists for projects which:
Push the boundaries of their genre of contemporary art
Are conceptually, formally or technologically rigorous
Connect with audiences in new and ambitious ways
Contribute to current cultural or artform development
PICA’s program seeks to support artists strategically through various stages of their career, from emerging to mid-career and established, and has a focus on connecting with a spectrum of local, national and international practices. PICA aims to be inclusive of different artistic ideas, forms and contexts and a diversity of artists and audiences.
Applications from First Nations artists, culturally and linguistically diverse artists, and artists who identify as D/deaf or disabled are especially welcomed.
Artist Fees & In-Kind Support
PICA will provide in-kind support, including venue hire, equipment and production support, and marketing support for all successful projects. We will provide cash support, such as artist fees, where possible. Please note, cash support will be determined per project.
