Arts Fest Proposals: Due Wednesday, March 31

The Studio Arts Fest is fast approaching! The date for the event is Friday, April 30th- the Intermedia Department has traditionally participated in its own Open House, but this year we will be a part of the larger, all-school event.

I would like us to think about ways that we might participate as a class- a group project, event, collaboration, a flash mob, performance, etc. What can you think of? Something that might encourage viewer participation or that engages viewers in some way.

As a way to brainstorm ideas, please write a one-page proposal for a project. This will be due Wednesday, March 31st. The turn-around is quick- the goal is to get ideas down on paper for us to discuss. In your proposal, please include the following:

1. Project Title

2. Description of the project/what would happen

3. Description of the people participating and their roles

4. List of materials needed

5. Estimate of time needed to carry out the project/a timeline

Think of this as an exercise in writing a proposal for a grant- as an artist, this is a necessary skill. These are just some of the areas you might write about if you were applying for a grant for an artist project. So consider this an opportunity for you to exercise your writing skills and put ideas down on paper.

I look forward to hearing your ideas.
