| Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art is pleased to present: Summer Institute 2023
Led by faculty Maggie Groat & Crystal Mowry August 7 – August 19, 2023 Application Deadline: March 16, 2023 Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art is delighted to announce this year’s iteration of our Summer Institute Program. Starting August 7 through August 19, 2023, artist Maggie Groat and curator, Crystal Mowry will be co-leading the two week program. We are seeking interested participants to join this session of the Summer Institute Program. Each year, for the two-week span, the Summer Institute Program serves as a forum that commiserates a cohort of artists, writers, thinkers, and various cultural professionals. Together with faculty leads, they exchange critical perspectives, engage in seminar circles, presentations, and workshopping exercises. Moreover, participants are provided space for studio work within our galleries or research activities through our library. Some versions of the Summer Institute have taken the form of field research or offsite, land-based learning. This year the faculty leaders will work together through their respective cultural practices to guide participants through a collaborative inquiry-based learning and sharing program. On the final day of the program, there will be an open studio, or reading presentation, or performance night open to the general public. Established in 2009, The Summer Institute is a free, international artist research program for professional artists and cultural workers in all disciplines and media. Each year, we invite artists that are critically leading conversations in their field to lead a two week Summer Institute. Each iteration of the Summer Institute invites participants to expand upon their own interests and projects and includes opportunities to work in a collaborative peer-to-peer environment through group activities, guest lectures, and workshops. Summer Institute is a FREE program to apply and participate in. Applicants from outside of Winnipeg (Treaty 1), MB will need to arrange their own travel, accommodation, and subsistence. Successful applicants can use their letter of acceptance for travel grants. There are very limited slots available for this program. Applications will need to be submitted by March 16, 2023. Only successful applications will be contacted. For more information on Summer Institute 2023, please contact: Luther Konadu, [email protected] |
