SITE SPREAD
Just 10 days left to apply for SPREAD!!!
SPREAD is a unique initiative that provides visibility, career development support, and funding for New Mexico-based artists. Over the last nine years, SITE’s six SPREAD events have raised over $40,000 in direct support for artists.
New Mexico artists working in any discipline and at any stage in their careers are invited to apply to become a SPREAD Finalist.
In the past, at each SPREAD event, over 300 diners paid a sliding-scale entrance fee for which they received dinner and a ballot. During dinner the six finalist artists presented their proposals for yet-to-be-realized new projects. The SPREAD diners then voted for their favorite project.
At the end of dinner, the artist whose proposal received the most votes was awarded all of the funds collected at the door to realize their project.
Applications due by December 4, 2020.
