Fledgling
Producer training and production assistance program
-
Emerging theatre artists or companies looking to develop skills in producing their own work through practical application. The artist and/or company should also have a project in mind that they are hoping to produce.

Depending on the needs of the artist or company, Art’s Nest can provide low- to no- cost space for rehearsals and performances, box office management, and introductions to technical designers and production staff.
-
Depending on the existing skills of the artist or company, Art’s Nest can provide mentorship in budgeting, fundraising, planning and timelines, advertising and audience building, staffing and contracts, and production management.

Yes, for now. We hope that in the future we can be more flexible.
-
Yes! We are always seeking actors, directors, designers, and technicians to be a part of Fledgling shows. This is a great way to build your resume and experience, even if you aren’t currently looking to build producer skills.
Fledgling is our producer training and production assistance program. Arts Nest believes that key to being successful as an emerging artist in the Twin Cities is an ability to produce and promote your own work.
As such, through the Fledgling program, Arts Nest helps emerging artists and companies take a project from concept to production, equipping them along the way with producer skills for the future.
We set aside three two-week blocks annually for Fledgling performances. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so feel free to submit whenever you’re ready.
