User:Jesslreese/Sedona Spontaneous Arts Coalition

The Sedona Spontaneous Arts Coalition was started in April 2011 by Jessica Laurel Reese to bring more spontaneous art into Northern Arizona. It is to inspire people when they expect no inspiration, to expose people to art in spaces where it is unexpected, bringing performance and visual arts into common spaces where it is seldom shared in spontaneous ways. SSAC does not request any financial assistance, as all work created by SSAC and its members is to use no financial resources, and is to operate on a scale that does not require city permits. SSAC intends only to encourage artists to perform their awesome work in seldom performed-in spaces, and share our talents with whoever may be present.

SSAC is pushing the idea of performance arts venues out into public spaces, bringing the inspiration one might find from an open microphone into spaces where one is not expecting to find inspiration. We are sharing our talents in strange places: coffee shops, grocery stores, shopping malls, trails, anywhere we might find those to inspire. We are spontaneously performing music, acting, poetry and visual arts.

Anyone is allowed to join the coalition. The coalition requests no money and is self sufficient based on the talent of its members. We welcome your ideas for spontaneous arts in Sedona, and we welcome your talents in creating spontaneous art.
