The NICODA performing arts festival launches in the summer of 2011. The event is designed to showcase the many talents of a large network of artists from dancers and musicians to poets and actors. Multiple events, staged in many of NYC’s underserved neighborhoods, will function together in concert as an envoy of the arts.
Contestants in each category will compete for prizes as they strive to bring beauty and illumination to the community. If you would like to compete (or would like to nominate another artist), you can download the NICODA 2011 application here or inquire about the festival at info@nicoda.org. Until then, NICODA will work on producing a series of smaller events in conjunction with Contaminate NYC. These events will help promote the wealth of talent that exists in NYC. If you are an artist, we would like to help promote your work, exhibitions, and events. If you would like assistance; send us an email, or find us around the web. Stay tuned for upcoming events!Thursday, August 19, 2010
