At the Outer Limits of Artmaking

At the Outer Limits of Artmaking

Friday, October 7
11:15 a.m.-12:45 p.m.

If you're headed to the 2016 Alliance for Artist Communities Conference, in Portland, check out this Friday break-out session!  

Some creative projects require complex support structures beyond the essential elements of time, space and funding. Enter programs like Fathomers (formerly Grand Arts) and Autodesk’s Pier 9 AiR Program - which are uniquely poised to meet impossible ideas with access to new technology, specialized equipment and intensive production support. Hear from artists and residency leaders about the projects that took them to unusual places and explore what it means to support artistic experimentation on a grand scale.
