CAMP ENSEMBLE invites all ensemble makers and collaborative practitioners to cultivate radical joy and develop practical strategies together! At this virtual event, you’ll co-create the future of our field-wide advocacy while sharing art, deep connections, and your brilliance through lightning conversations. We’re not just gathering—we’re growing something unstoppable.
This event focuses on:
- Convening regional NET members and ensemble/collective practitioners to rebuild and strengthen community.
- Story-gathering and engagement that supports our reframed national advocacy efforts for the ensemble arts field.
- Continuing research and collective activations around solidarity economies, piloting mutual-aid protocols in the ensemble field, and building cross-sector shared purchasing agreements.
- Opening pathways for deeper collaborations, shared resources, and shared leadership across our ensemble field.
Please sign up for our newsletter and follow our blog for weekly updates on all things NET.
“The exciting seeds I’ve been planting are digital spaces that replicate the physical—so we can do hybrid programming. And I’ve been talking with my colleagues to make it all hybrid, connected, and accessible.” — Claudia Alick, Virtual Camp Facilitator
