You can now apply to join us for the MdW Summit from November 18-23, 2024 at Charlotte Street in Kansas City!
MdW is an evolving coalition of artist-run projects, platforms, and spaces spanning across the Midwest. We’re getting together in Kansas City with over 100 fellow artists and culture bearers who work on artist-run galleries, publications, and other platforms. Join us for a week of connecting, resource-sharing, an exhibition, field trips, and opportunities to learn about alternative models for navigating the Midwest’s cultural landscape.
The MdW Summit is a coalition-building initiative where artists and culture bearers collectively reimagine alternative models for connecting, sharing, and making outside the “art world’s” limits. MdW’s DIY ethos connects hyperlocal art scenes across the Midwest to build lasting coalitions of artist-led action.
Accepted participants receive a $500 travel stipend. Artists selected for the exhibition by curators Brandon Alvendia and Kimi Kitada will receive a small additional stipend.
