If you’re an artist of any ilk — poet, painter, sculptor, dancer, filmmaker, video artist, comedian, singer/songwriter, musician/composer or other (“other” is usually our favorite) — and you’re interested in being featured at BONK! in Racine, WI, then we’d like to hear from you.
Please send a selection of your work to bonk.racine@gmail.com. You can send us video, audio, .doc files or JPGs. Your submission should give us a clear idea of what you plan on doing with your 15 – 20 minutes of BONK! time. DO NOT just comment below on this post or anywhere else, for consideration, or we will probably never notice your submission. Contact us at the e-mail above.
We typically take at least a month to answer submissions and schedule about 6 months in advance so the sooner you submit the better!
Hey Nick and Matt, Had a great time last night at BONK! I like what you guys are creating: A relaxed environment where artist of all media feel comfortable sharing their voices.
Instead of presenting my work and talking about it I’d like to coordinate an interactive sculpture construction/assemblage inviting all in attendance to participate. Assemblage would start at 5:30 while people are gathering, continue til 6:00 and pick up again during intermission. My 20 minutes would begin after intermission as everyone rushes to bring some sense of completion.
Material will be simple everyday waste product[s]. Objective is a collective reaction to see beauty in the disposable.
Look forward to further discussion about the feasiblity of my plan. Maureen Fritchen
Hey Maureen. Glad to hear you’re interested! If you’d like to talk more about these ideas, please just send an e-mail like it says above and we’ll get back to you, probably with just a little delay.
thanks. very cool idea.
If you’re in need of any “disposables” we’d be happy to set somethings aside for you… as to not have to transport too much waste
xo, blueberries
L. Bell, I will certainly keep that in mind. Thanks
Hey guys, just wondering why there is not a calendar on here of the days and times of upcoming BONKS!? Does it start at 6pm on the 28th?
Please contact me regarding an opening for a visual artist. I have tweeked my idea for a collective art project that will require less time and would like to discuss it with you.
