Earlier this year, we commissioned 20 Artists from York and N.Yorkshire to produce a brand new five minute piece each, as part of Green Shoots. The line up contained a broad range of professional artists – poets, performers, singers, dancers, digital artists – and their brilliant works premiered on our stage on 07 and 08 June.
Now Green Shoots finds a new home online. All the artists have worked hard to create digital versions of their work, and we’re delighted to share the with you now.
Together, these 20 shorts are a real celebration of the tremendous talent and ingenuity we have across our region – bringing together twenty wonderful local artists into one brilliantly eclectic project.
Each day this week we’ll be releasing more content so keep an eye out here and on our social channels…
