Jan 2008 - Jul 2011
Artists' Bloc is an organization rooted in the support for professional performing artists. By cultivating personal relationships with member artists we strive to better understand their process, identifying areas where the assistance of our membership and partners will have a positive impact in their work. Through the active inclusion of the public at large we strive to open artistic, social, political, environmental, and educational dialogues that continue long after Artists' Bloc programs. Artists' Bloc is where performing artists can explore their craft free from the critical eye of the press; the place to develop new work and present it to fellow artists and audiences for peer feedback.
