If you've got even one artistic bone in your body, then pay attention: the 2011 Adelaide Fringe Festival wants you and your talent (in a non-sleazy way).
Registrations are now open to visual artists, presenters, film makers, puppeteers, performers of circus, theatre and experimental art and anyone else who has an act, vision or idea to participate in the largest Arts event in the Southern Hemisphere - Adelaide Fringe 2011!
Artists are invited to immerse themselves and their craft in a melting pot of creativity; surrounded by audiences of over 1 million and a wealth of artists, presenters, producers and industry folk from around the world.
“The phones are up and running, the office mirror ball dusted, the rug laid, the lamps lit and the how-to guides bound. Our Artist Services team - Michelle, Carin and Eugene - are ready to answer all questions about how to register a show and find a venue,” said Adelaide Fringe Director Greg Clarke.
Over 24 hot summer days and nights, artists will not only run their own shows, exhibitions and events, but also have opportunities to join the masses in the Opening Night Parade, put their best assets on display for the inaugural Adelaide Fringe Art Show (no longer restricted to the mini art format) and (our favourite!) perform a ‘taster’ of their events at the Fringe Showcase Stage in the bustling Rundle Mall.
To register an event, artists can head to the Adelaide Fringe website www.adelaidefringe.com.au or contact the Artist Services team for more information on (08) 8100 2055 or via email.
Artist registrations are open from Wednesday August 4 and close on Friday October 15 2010.
Adelaide Fringe 2011 will be held from 18 February to 13 March. Keep up to date with all the latest glitz and goss by visiting the website and signing up for the e-news bulletin.
