Affiliated with the ADaPT Festival is the AFFINITY Project
which gives artists who engaged
at ADaPT Festivals the chance to deepen the artistic relationship.
Info about this project can be found at www.artbarkaffinityproject.org
The Festival is a collaboration between the artists and the host organization. While the host is responsible for producing a well publicized event and covering all festival production and promotion costs, the artists take full responsibility for funding their journey to the festival, their creative costs, and cost of accomodations. Artists, at this phase in our development are not remunerated for their creative contributions. We do offer free consultation and support for artists undertaking efforts to fund their adventures to the Festival and have helped artists successfully procure funding for their efforts (international artists have received funding from Turkish, Austrian, and Israeli Govt. agencies).
Each Festival has a personality and life energy unique to the year in that we remain open and sensitive to opportunities that arise and try to tailor the festivals to meet artists needs.
In 2013 the Festival returns from Vienna, AUSTRIA with Festival components planned for both the West Coast and the East Coast of the USA and is being hosted by ArtBark International (formerly SonneBlauma Danscz Theatre). This season the Festival is in part invitational with select groups ArtBark connected with in Vienna invited to attend along with artists that participated in the ADaPT Festival in 2011 and\or the Afffinity Projects.
We have put the call for submissions out and the deadline for 2013 consideration is February 1st, 2013. In that we only have a few slots open, applications we aren't able to accommodate at this time we'll give top priority for 2014 activities.
