DIY 4

DIY 4:2007
Professional development projects BY artists FOR artists across the UK

APPLY NOW to participate
FINAL REMINDER for first four projects

DIY 4 offers artists working in Live Art the opportunity to take part in a unique series of eclectic and unusual professional development projects conceived and run BY artists FOR artists.

The DIY 4 programmes take many forms from camping trips and walking tours, to workshops and group meetings. And between them cover areas of exploration from humour, through analysing the 'day job' to survival (just to name a few).

Apply to take part in one or all of the DIY 4 projects with deadline 30 April:

London


From Life-Change to Dream-Space: encouraging the outlandish, nurturing the fanciful, discarding the limiting
A project with a focus on play and escape from everyday concerns for artists with practices and lives affected by health issues.

What's missing - eating, talking, sharing challenge; regaining autonomy in performance training

A wilderness ritual - an invitation to step outside of one's social and artistic comfort zone and move with the flow of the city itself.
