Want to Support Nextfest?

To go along with the streamed multidisciplinary broadcasts, Nextfest is providing development programs for artists by hosting online workshops and one-on-one mentorship opportunities, ensuring emerging artists still have opportunities to grow.

There will be no ticket revenue for this year’s festival so we need our supporters more than ever.

Adopt an artist! By adopting an artist you contribute directly to building the next generation of creators. With a $100 donation per artist we will pair you up with an artist and you become their adopted Nextfest parent.
