Artsweek 2011 Call for Submissions

Deadline for submissions: Friday, July 15, 2011 

Artsweek Peterborough is a multi-disciplinary showcase of the arts created in 2005 with the aim of providing opportunities for arts, culture and community to intersect. In 2011, Artsweek is refreshing its programming structure; focusing on assisting producers make and present high-quality work for a wide range of audiences and participants. This change allows Artsweek to allocate more funding for artistic production and increase the amounts granted to producers, which in turn supports better presenting conditions for artists. 

Applications may come from cultural producers, curators, and other presenting organizations. Artists may not self-produce. We encourage the presentation of local artists as well as artists and art projects from further afield. Projects must be presented in the City of Peterborough during Artsweek, September 10 - 17, 2011.

Funds may be requested up to a maximum of $5000, and applications will be reviewed by a jury of arts professionals. Successful applicants will demonstrate a commitment to artistic and professional growth, works that engage audiences in an active way, and an approach that embraces innovation and diversity.

ARTSWEEK will only accept applications electronically. Please compile all sections of your application into one (1) document and email to info@artsweekpeterborough.com as either a WORD .doc or .PDF. Paste “ARTSWEEK 2011” into the subject line.
