“A sure sign of a thriving arts ecosystem is when you see people collaborating across genres, responding to each other’s work and creating something new.”
– Nashville Scene
Celebrate local innovation and creativity with a bold evening of entirely original short-form performances featuring dance, theater, music, and multimedia. The fourth-annual Brave New Works Lab invites daring Nashville artists to transform OZ Arts into a laboratory for the creation and premiere of new works and works-in-progress. Encouraging multimedia experimentation and collaboration across disciplines, the lab creates a safe space for high-risk artistic adventures. Following up on the success of 2024’s ambitious Lab presentations, this year’s event promises to be the biggest and bravest Lab yet.
SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO BNWL 2025
Projects for the Brave New Works Lab will be selected from an open call for artist proposals, open now through October 28, 2024.
