| | | DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 6! $4,000 in PRIZES
Partnering with Beechwood Arts and Innovation, the Cultural Alliance of Fairfield County offers the Virtual Innovation Challenge as an incentive for artists, musicians and performers to create new forms and formats – innovative, interactive online programs that can generate income and provide new forms for sustainability. Submitted work will be judged on its ability to: be innovative in its presentation, clearly showing the use of art and digital formats in a new way; be interactive – engaging its audience in ways that includes feedback and interactivity with its audience; and incorporate an ability to generate income for the artist(s). Prizes of $2,000, $1250 and $750 will be awarded to the top three submissions as judged by a jury of practitioners in the field. More information: https://bit.ly/cafcVICinfo. Apply: https://bit.ly/cafcVIC by the new deadline of July 6, 11:59pm |
