Kindling Arts Festival 2018
Event Information
Description
Kindling is a radically unique arts incubator and accelerator embracing exciting original and experimental performance developed outside existing institutions. With an emphasis on innovative process, the Kindling Arts Festival will showcase interdisciplinary collaborations in surprising spaces, defying genre and cultivating authentic new aesthetics. We empower diverse local performers with the space and supporting resources required to take daring creative risks and explore challenging ideas.
By generating thoughtful, original content with an eye toward inclusivity and the professional development of diverse creators, we intend for Kindling to emerge as the premiere platform for Nashville’s most innovative makers.
