What is IMMERSE, presented by the Creative City Project?

IMMERSE is an annual performing and interactive arts experience. It takes place across 10 city blocks in Downtown Orlando. We collaborate with artists to create meaningful and epic experiences audiences can’t have anywhere else in the world.

What kind of art will be most successful at IMMERSE?

We encourage you to check out this article on "3 Things That Define a Creative City Project Artist." IMMERSE isn't your everyday arts festival. We're looking for experiences, performances, and installations that go beyond and inspire people to live creative lives everyday. We want to help patrons have experiences they can't have anywhere else. So take a look at the comments on DISCOVERY, TRANSFORMATION, and EXPERIENCE in this article.

Is my artform a fit for IMMERSE?

We invite individual artists, artist collectives, companies and organizations to participate in IMMERSE.

We are looking for engaging and meaningful projects, installations and performances in the following disciplines:

• Performing Arts (music, theatre, dance, spoken word, puppetry, etc.)

• Media Arts (photography, video, animation, digital art, robotics, etc.)

• Visual Arts (draw, paint, sculpture, printmaking, crafts, etc.)

• If your artform isn’t listed here, give it a try. We’re always open to unique ideas!

Individuals, groups and organizations are all eligible to apply for an IMMERSE stipend.

Here’s a video all about our stages and footprint. We’ll help you discover the best fit for your artform.

Do you offer payments to artists?

The Creative City Project believes in financially assisting artists who contribute to the event. IMMERSE stipends vary depending on the scope of the performance or installation. They are given to projects, installations, and performances that provide audiences with a unique, meaningful and engaging experience until the stipend fund is fully allotted.

Can I still participate even if I’m not selected to receive a IMMERSE stipend?

Absolutely! We realize our stipend budget is limited. We aim to financially support every contributing artist and will continue efforts to grow artist funds each year.
