PROOF OF CONCEPT

Our initial goal is to test, prove, and document the viability of the ARTS FOR MOREperformances and ARTS FOR MOREprojects models. We want to demonstrate consistent audience growth for both the performances and projects models, along with the continuing willingness to participate from artists, presenters, and all our collaborators. The documentations of viability will be used to create a variety of media presentations in order to secure an early stage round of funding to design and develop the ARTS FOR MORE platform, launch, and grow the company. 

The early-stage Proof of Concept for ARTS FOR MOREperformances will be designed and developed for the San Francisco Bay Area, in a variety of small to medium-sized venues. For the Proof of Concept, we will develop two types of hybrid live and streamed performance models. The LISTEN MOREperformances series will be developed as regular performances in music venues and/or restaurants that present music. For our other performance series, the RANDOM ARTS OF KINDNESSperformances, we will develop a variety of multimedia arts live and streamed performances, in order to reach more potential audiences by collaborating with artists from Intersection for the Arts.

The early-stage Proof of Concept for ARTS FOR MOREprojects will be designed and developed with the same basic goals of audience building and collaboration with some of our Intersection for the Arts member artists and organizations.

For ARTS FOR MOREperformances there will be about 5-15 events over a 3-4 month “COVID-19 safe” time frame. 

For the Proof of Concept phase, ARTS FOR MORE will determine and collaborate with a variety of small local and larger established national and international non-profit organizations.
