Offered since 2015, FREE ADVICE is an open and free consultation service with our staff. We make consultation sessions available throughout the year, and any artist in the region can sign up at no cost. Artists are encouraged to seek advice for a wide range of topics related to their work, from identifying grant and residency opportunities to locating creative communities and collaborators.
FREE ADVICE’s goals are:
- Provide support to contemporary LA arts workers by facilitating dialogue in a nurturing environment of ‘generous exchange’;
- Encourage network expansion for attendees;
- Provide helpful resources to arts workers that are new to them while also continuing to have a pulse on pressing issues facing contemporary artists and arts workers today.
For our in-person model, Los Angeles Performance Practice is offering free advice to local artists, in the form of 45-minute advisory sessions, hosted at our WeWork offices.
Current advisors include Miranda Wright, Deborah Reed, and Patricia Garza of Los Angeles Performance Practice. We specialize in contemporary performance and fundraising. You can read full bios of each of us here.
We are also thrilled to announce that for two upcoming FREE ADVICE sessions we will be joined by colleagues in the field! On April 26, 2022 we will be joined by our colleague, Alex Sloane, Associate Curator of Performance and Programs at MOCA, LA. On May 24, 2022 we will be joined by our colleague, Camille Jenkins, Programming Manager at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.
