Fieldwork Sessions
The Field-Seattle offers Fieldwork sessions several times a year, in autumn, spring, and summer. The sessions provide participating artists a chance to show their work and give each other supportive and concrete aesthetic feedback. Each session is led by one or two Field facilitators who are especially skilled in reflective feedback. These sessions are open to everyone from aspiring artists to those well-established in their fields, working in any art form. Many sessions are offered for mixed disciplines while some focus on a special topic (i.e. playwriting, the development of longer works, mid-career artists). See below for our current offerings and to register.
