Open Flight Studio (OFS) is a space for performance-based artists to research, experiment, develop, teach, dialog and perform. OFS strives to maintain a neutral space that is affordable and accessible to enable the goals, pursuits and interests of individual artists, groups and art advocates.
Open Flight Studio also runs the Flight Deck Residency, an annual residency program that awards studio time to Seattle dance artists that culminates in a performance that shares the artists’ works in whatever stage they are currently in.
OFS gives studio space to artists to use how they choose. Depending on when the residency falls during an artists’ creative project, the space can be utilized to research a new idea, meditate and reflect, and/or complete a project. In the Flight Deck performance, each artist will reveal to the public a unique moment in their creative project, what they are grappling with, studying, inspired by, where they are right now.
