We invite you to a part of the Contemporary Performance Almanac 2019, a crowd-funded and open-source overview of contemporary performance created or presented during the 2017/18/19 seasons available for touring now. This is the 5th year and 6th volume of the Almanac. The book will be published in 2019. We will share the ebook version with international presenters who are looking to invite touring work and publish the book for participants. So often presenters do not have access to the work of artists that are outside the touring circuit. Contemporary Performance sees a need to give access to both artists and presenters to find each other and start new working relationships. The ebook will be a digital copy of our perfect bound 10″ x 7″ paperback book with each artist receiving a black and white image and a full page listing. The book project is crowd-funded and open-source.
