2010 YAK Summer Residency Showings

David Kirkpatrick — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 06:46:03 +0000

To kick off the new year in style YAK Events would like to invite you to the 2010 YAK Summer Residency Showings on the 16th of January.

The showings are the culmination of a two week intensive rehearsal and development residency undertaken by young artists from around Sydney and Melbourne. This year the showings feature works by the Bits & Pieces Ensemble, Sophie Webb and Mark Pritchard, and Faustina Delany. The residency gives performers an opportunity to create, develop and experiment, with no restrictions other than a time limit and their imaginations.

Check out the 2010 YAK Summer Residency Journal to see what’s been happening during the residency so far.

The YAK Summer Residency Showings will take place at Shopfront Contemporary Arts Centre for Under 25’s, 88 Carlton Pde, Carlton, NSW. In order for us keep producing work by young artists a $10 donation at the door would be much appreciated.
