Description: Following on from the success of last year’s inaugural event, submissions are invited for the second 2-day Live Art Falmouth event in June. This is a unique opportunity for practitioners to showcase work (either new or existing), and for students in the region to explore Live Art and performance-based ideas and projects. Workshops, collaborations and examples of good practice are all features, as well as an opportunity to build audience subscription to Live Art in Cornwall. All work and actions will be documented, and there will be opportunities for debate, discussion and interaction, both during the event and via the website. A visit to the site can be arranged, and we may be able to offer travel expenses to UK based artists.
