Applications are now open for the 2026 Improvisation Summit of Portland, taking place October 13-29. We invite musicians, sound artists, improvisers, interdisciplinary performers, and experimental artists to apply to be part of this year’s festival.

The application deadline is August 19, and applicants will be notified of programming decisions by August 24.

Please note that the application is hosted through Google Forms, and a Gmail/Google account is required to access and submit the application.

If you’re creating adventurous work that engages improvisation, experimentation, collaboration, or creative risk-taking, we encourage you to apply. You’ll find the application link in this newsletter, and we look forward to discovering the projects that will help shape this year’s Summit. Good luck!
