VOID Incubator Presents: The Percolator

Since the launch of #EnterTheVOID the VOID team has been working non-stop to get our first pilot project up and running. In that time we have applied to ArtReach for a $10,000 grant, which we received for our 2016 Pilot Project The Percolator. 

What we Intend to accomplish with the grant is a 10-week Program that will give 16-20 Artists the space to develop a body of work one day a week. On the second day each week they will all come together to network, learn how to brand themselves, write a business plan, artist bio and artist statement etc. 

The Void Team is looking forward to sharing the space with the artists selected for the percolator. We are also looking forward to creating the second annual #EnterTheVOID event where each artists will showcase what they have been working on over the 10 weeks. 

If you are looking to get more involved with VOID or have any questions; please send us an email at: [email protected]

Our First Event/Showcase!

Raising funds for VOID Incubator: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/raising-funds-for-void-incubator-tickets-16566244082?aff=eac2

VOID Incubator bolsters financial access and independence by sharing networks and delivering resources to emerging artists and entrepreneurs.

Our goal is to create a physical home for VOID so that we can offer a space where youth who are post program or aging out from youth organizations can have a space to take what they have learned and implement into an income source. This can take the form of building product and selling it in the space, creating grass roots initiative(s), or facilitating workshops. The space will include but is not limited to Events, meeting/studio space, workshops, and rentals.

We welcome and look forward to your inquiries. Email us at: [email protected] to find out how you can join us in building our dream for the next steps in growing our community and supporting our generation of youth and the next!

Come out May 15th, 2015 to get a taste of what Void offers our community and help give a space for youth to build themselves and their dreams.
