Artspace is excited to announce GAME ON! as the theme for the 19th annual City-Wide Open Studios in New Haven, CT. Games foster participation and exchange between people. They are unique in their ability to bring together strangers, distant relatives, best friends and family for extended periods of time, they provide insights into parts of ourselves that do not always find expression when we work.

For GAME ON!, Artspace anticipates funding about 8-9 projects, to take place during the festival, Oct 7- Nov 17, 2016. We invite proposals from artists, designers, coaches, teams, teachers, engineers, etc. Winning proposals will receive an honorarium, materials budget, and staff coordination services to enable them to realize their projects. We are looking for projects that activate provocative social interactions, recreation, new means of discovery, while also enhancing community-building.
