Calls for Artists

Maelstrom Collaborative Arts looks for flexible, inclusive and adaptable artists & creators from the performing, visual, installation, and transmedia arts to venture into new territory with us. We seek artists who value collaboration, inquiry, generosity, and the growth of the Cleveland arts scene.

 

BRICOLAGE: AUG 15- 17TH

An explosion of new fusion works created by teams of creators from different mediums and backgrounds 

Closing out our summer Triptych series is our popular mixed media show Bricolage, August 15-17, featuring musicians, dancers, visual artists, theater-makers, and more!

Selected artists will be paired with another artist from a different medium and each pair will collaborate on a new hybrid performance piece (approximately 15 minutes in length).  This is an opportunity to create new bold work within a discipline you may not be familiar with. Bricolage is another MCA exercise in adaptably, communication and - of course- collaboration. 

The Details

  • August 15 - 17th 7:30pm

  • 10-15 minute set co-created with another Bricolage artist

  • At least 20% of participating artists have not worked with MCA in the past

    • This evolving criteria is derived from the values in our Anti-racism, Accessibility and Inclusion statement and goals.
