MADC's Collective Thread Residency Open Call

MODArts Dance Collective (MADC) is elated to host its third annual free Collective Thread Residency on June 5, 6, 12, & 13 9AM-12PM at Groove With Me, 186 E 123rd St #2, New York, NY 10035. The Collective Thread Residency is an extension of MADC's annual Collective Thread Dance Festival. This free residency is an incubator for women/womxn identifying dancers & choreographers of color ages 18+ to hone their technical skills and creative practices to develop new work through journaling, round table discussions, and movement based classes as a form of self-care. Six to eight artists will be chosen to participate to comply with social distancing mandates while wearing face masks and to build more authentic relationships with the artists.

OPEN CALL for artwork around the theme "Pause" to be featured in digital publication

Not Selected At This Time is pleased to announce their first open call! Artists are invited to submit their visual work(s) around the theme of "pause."

Not Selected At This Time is a digital publication exhibiting work by visual artists who are underrepresented in the arts by traditional means. Because we believe class (and therefore white supremacy and patriarchy) should not determine an artist’s ability to exhibit, we vow to subscribe to a donation-based submission model, with no fees required by the artist at any point. We prioritize showcasing work by BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, sex worker, incarcerated, non binary and women artists. Due to the nature of our publication, video-based work is not accepted at this time. We look forward to seeing your work.

The Witching Hour Volume II: A Quaranzine

Last October, we celebrated some of the most bewitching artists and enchanting works at our first annual The Witching Hour exhibition. I’d love nothing more than to revive such a wicked soirée. However, it is imperative that we prioritize our health and safety while COVID continues to leave heartbreak and devastation in its wake.
