Do It Together
Deadline: 12 November 2025Call for Proposals via Live Art Development Agency
What can we do together?
We want to hear from artists and practitioners eager to design and lead a peer-to-peer project that benefits your own practice and others’, andexplores questions, ideas, tools and methodologies in a shared, process-led space.
What is DIT?
Do It Together (DIT) is a peer-to-peer professional development programme that enables artists to explore ideas, aesthetics and sociopolitical realities together.Knowing that the development of Live Art practice is as much about methodologies and experiences as training in skills and techniques, DIT invites artists to delve into collective enquiries and share their process.
DIT reactivates Live Art Development Agency’s flagship programme, DIY, which ran unique professional development projects by artists for artists from 2002 to 2020. Still DIY, but Together, the crucial shift for 2026 is that each project will be supported by two national partners instead of one. By increasing the support at a time when both independents and organisations are struggling to resource artist development, DIT ignites a nation-wide support network for process-led experimental practice.
We know that DIY has always been about collective movements, but now, more than ever, we need to do it together.
Artsadmin x Future Ritual
We are supporting one DIT project in London. We welcome proposals rooted in performance art, particularly site-responsive, durational, and embodied practices.We're interested in work engaging with London’s energy, contradictions, and histories, or its unique ecologies and belief systems. Artists can live anywhere in the UK, but the project must be inspired by, respond to or be in dialogue with London.
It will be hosted at Artsadmin’s Toynbee Studios, with up to 10 days’ studio space in March/April 2026 for planning and delivery and the potential for off-site engagement.
DIT celebrates the unfixed, the unruly and the unconventional. We are looking for ideas that are rooted in our new realities, and those which create portals into the unknown. This is an opportunity to do things differently, and to support each other to challenge the status quo.
DIT projects can take any form, there really is no idea too weird or wild to be considered.
