FISHBON EVENTS AND PROJECTS

LUCIDITY WAS AWESOME

Last Weekend's Lucidity Festival was a tour de force for Fishbon. Special thanks to Mark Goerner, Van Granaroli, Tracy Beeler, Alan Macy and a host of volunteers fot their tiresome effort to make Fishbon's offering to the festival magnificent.The stage was host to an impressive array of performances, talks, and panels, including 11 Fishtalks and the raucous FishSchtick set. Thanks to all who participated.

COLLABORATION AT FISHBON

Since our inception as the result of a collaboration in 2003, Fishbonartists, builders, engineers and performers have collaborated to bring more than fifty creative events, installations and performances to life. And we need your help to keep that beautiful string of projects alive. If you have an idea that you want to develop further, want to work with others on a project, or would be willing to help organize a project this year, click on the Collaborative Project Madness banner above and tell us how you want to be part of the next adventure.

Mission and Purpose

Fishbon’s Purpose:
Fishbon's purpose is to provide a forum, education and support for creative collaboration, mentorship and the visceral experience of visual, aural and performance-based art.  It is also to provide exhibition media for the artists and their art forms.

Fishbon’s Mission:
Fishbon's mission is to encourage collaboration between artists, technologists, writers, designers, performers and participants to create unique, real-time, compelling aesthetic experiences that speak to contemporary audiences.  Fishbon believes the synergy (sharings of perspectives and skills) made possible in a collaborative space creates a unique and special context for art.  By providing context, physical infrastructure, tools, mentoring support and encouragement for creative collaboration, Fishbon is an experiential incubator for emerging cooperative working models.  Much more about the process experience than final product, Fishbon creates a diverse "interactive" learning community that would be difficult to achieve in isolated individual working environments.

Fishbon is a 501 (c) (3) arts organization
