Manifesto

During NeXtFest’97 Festival Director Bradley Moss felt it was important to articulate a philosophy (more than a mandate) to focus and provide direction for what we were creating. Bradley now refers to it as the Nextfest Manifesto – and it still holds true today.

To provide advisement, mentorship and partnership in all matters in creating an uninhibited multidisciplinary annual summer festival. To build an association of emerging professional artists through the support, practice, and celebration of the visual, theatrical, and musical arts, thereby creating opportunities for the discovery, cultivation and dissemnation of their immediate, needful, and truthful voice.
