NEW ART                                                                                                         YOUR VOICE                                                                                  NO HOLDS BARRED

 

Welcome to 12 x 6!   If you’ve ever wanted to give an artist your feedback 12x6 is your chance!  6 times a year up to 12 artists from all genres are provided the opportunity to present their developing works to their fellow artists and the public for peer review.  If anonymity is your game there’s written feedback, but for those bolder audience members you can speak up during our verbal feedback session.  12x6 is your chance to make a mark on DC’s newest art work. 

 

We hope to see you at the next 12 x 6!

 

 

Do you have a piece you think would be right for 12 x 6?  Bring it on!  The rules are simple.

 

Your Work Must be New and Original

Selected Portion of the Work Must be 12 minutes or Less in Length

You Provide All Performers, Properties, Scenery, Costumes, Etc.

You Provide All Audio Cues on a CD

Fill out the Information Sheet and e-mail it to 12x6@artistsbloc.org

 

That’s it.  We’ll take care of the space, audience, lights, and sound operation.  You bring the work, we’ll bring the feedback.  It’s that easy.
