AV Festival 08 is providing creative practitioners with an opportunity to contribute ideas to the programme. In the next two months, we will announce a series of opportunities for artists, musicians, filmmakers, DJs, VJs, designers, theorists, technologists, scientists, philosophers and others to contribute to the festival.

The first of these are now online, and include the call for artists’ proposals for AV Festival 08 at Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens, a project Manager for Middlesbrough and also for young people to get involved with AV Festival 08 through the evolve volunteer and envoy scheme.

In the coming weeks, we will also call for proposals from artists and producers who want to get involved with our radio stations, filmmakers who want to create a new work for the festival, and critics and philosophers who want to contribute to our conferences.
