MCT DEVELOPING ARTIST PROGRAM
Artist Led. Artist Made.
Milk Crate Theatre's Developing Artist Program is for our Collaborative Artists who have been engaged with us in our programs for some time, and are seeking a new level of challenge. It is a unique space where those who wish to, can elevate their creative practice by learning to make their own artistic work and uncover what the title of 'Artist' means to them; culminating in an exploration and development of an idea/s for a piece they wish to make.
PROGRAM STRUCTURE:
PART ONE: ORIGINATE
A 6 week masterclass series where you will learn how to make your own artistic work! In addition to exploring a range of different art forms and exercises for stimulating creative material, we will also cover:
How to plan and the carry out your ideas
Claiming the title of 'Artist' and what it means to you
Deciding what you want to make and WHY
Self care throughout the creative process, challenging your fears, and taking creative risks
Devising performance
PART TWO: GENERATE
GENERATE is where Collaborative Artists get dedicated time and space to develop ideas for a piece they wish to make. This could be in any art form (theatre, performance, film, digital, visual etc). It is a self-directed place to play, write, create and make, with the support and guidance and MCT's Artistic Director and Facilitating Artists.
