Call for Artists: Artscape Sandbox launches two exciting initiatives for professional artists

Artscape Sandbox is brand new flexible and multidisciplinary performance space in the heart of the entertainment district. At over 6,000 square feet, the space is ripe for vibrant and innovative artistic creation on a large scale. We believe this special resource has something unique to offer professional artists as a space for exploration, innovation and presentation.

Run as a social enterprise, Artscape Sandbox operates with a sliding-scale rental model to offset expenses and allows for  a wide range of artists and community members  access to the space at highly subsidized rates. Above and beyond this sliding scale, Artscape is committed to offering meaningful creative opportunities in our artistic sector that match the incredible commitment and resources artists bring to their creative and entrepreneurial projects.

Artscape is excited to announce two special initiatives for Artscape Sandbox’s first year of operations:

The Artscape Sandbox Creation Initiative makes this specialized performance space available to professional artists for just $1 per day. For up to 30 days per calendar year Artscape Sandbox will be available to arts professionals looking for a large scale, flexible space to develop and/or present new artistic projects and/or to develop further resources for large scale creation projects.
