Queer Feedback Sessions is a seven-week artistic research project (by IPOP), exploring theories and methodologies of queering performance feedback while providing a chance for artists to receive feedback on current projects. This opportunity is open to students, staff and alumni of the Academy of Theatre and Dance as well as community members from the Amsterdam area with an interest in queer art making.  This year, in addition to artists and researchers, we will also welcome people interested in being trained in our feedback methodologies as facilitators. 

An honorarium of €200 is offered for participants. 

IPOP would like to underline the collaborative aspect of these sessions. Their methodology and approach have been largely informed by experiences and creative dialogue with the participants of two previous cohorts. In January 2024, IPOP is planning to release a manual based on the work in transforming artistic feedback through a queer lens. 
 
The seven sessions will be held in Winter/Spring 2024 from 11.00 to 17.00 on Saturdays on the following dates: 3 February, 10 February, 24 February, 2 March, 9 March, 6 April, 13 April, and 20 April. Sessions will take place at DAS Graduate School (Overhoeksplein 2) and ATD (Jodenbreestraat 3) both in Amsterdam.
 
The deadline to submit applications is 31 October 2023.
