Miami Light Project seeks new, short-form work from artists working across the disciplines of dance, music, theater, and spoken word. We encourage artists to experiment and find or hone their artistic voices. We encourage collaboration and cross-disciplinary approaches.
Miami Light Project launched Here & Now in 1999 as the first of its kind program dedicated to the commissioning of Miami-based performing and multi-media artists. In addition to a commission fee, artists who are selected for a Here & Now receive free rehearsal space, technical assistance and professional development from Miami Light Project, that extends beyond their Here & Now performance.
Since its inception, Miami Light Project has commissioned work from more than 100 Miami-based artists, whose work has contributed to the growing reputation of Miami as a cultural center of international importance. Over 30 of those artists have gone on to perform that work in 14 states and 16 countries for an estimated world wide audience of over 25,000!
