"In this clip about performance arts, I'm going to talk about finding a venue. So, you've created you performance art piece. It has a concept. You used the senses, it's visual, you know, costumes, what have you. You've work shopped it. What you got, you've got grants. You've got a free piano out of the deal. Where you're going to perform it now. Well, you could find a venue. Just a regular venue at a concert. You know, hall or restaurant, a club. You could produce your own event. You could do a night of performance artists. And get other performance artists to share your gig. So that you have more of a draw. You could look into performance art festivals. Look on the computer. And do some research on the Internet. And find festivals to submit your work to. You could perform at a fund raiser. Fund raisers are always looking for free performers. So, you know, there's benefits to doing your own and to perform with others. I would suggest, always perform with others. Because, the first time you perform it's pretty easy to get your twenty friends out. But the second time, the third time, they stop coming. It's really good to share the event. So find a space, find a great venue and produce it with other people."
