CO/MINGLING Registration

Calling dancers, movers, musicians and sound artists!

You’re invited to CO/MINGLING — an open, collaborative space to explore where sound, music, dance and improvisation intersect.

This is a time for artists across different, yet connected, practices to come together, share space, and experiment.

Build your regular practice with the CO/MINGLING artist collective!

One Saturday every month at Wollongong Town Hall, as well as two special ‘CO/MINGLES’ at Critical Path Choreographic centre in Rushcutters Bay Sydney.

Inspired by iconic improvisation programs such as Sydney’s Whip It program and De Quincey Co's Impro-Exchange program, CO/MINGLING is a space to grow, experiment, network and spark new projects.

CO/MINGLING is suitable for professional dancers, movers and musicians, recent graduates and current tertiary level/pre-professional dance and music students.
