Clinic+ is Outburst’s open door online “clinic” for queer artists, writers and creative workers to get support, advice or signposting to other sources of help.
We have up to 28 possible half-hour time slots available each month* where you can chat to the team and get some informal support. That can be practical information like something you’re stuck on with a funding applications or making a budget, applying for opportunities, or finding peer connections. Or it can be creative support, like feedback on a script, signposting to research materials, or trying out a new idea. If we can’t help directly, we’ll try to signpost you to someone who can.
Please note that Clinic + isn’t a pitching space for running ideas past the team for festival submissions. It’s an informal, open, non-judgemental meeting for a chat about your queer work or practice and it’s also a great way for us to build a better understanding of what queer artists and makers need so we can advocate for that in our work.
Clinic+ slots are currently available each week on Monday and Wednesday mornings and Thursday afternoons.
To request the booking link, please email us at hello@outburstarts.com, briefly introducing your practice and what you would like some support with. If we cand send a simple solution via email we may do that, otherwise we’ll send you the link to our bookings calendar for a chat and let you know if we’d like any other materials from you before we meet so we can make the best use of our session. It will automatically generate a calendar invitation and a Zoom link for us to meet.
We offer booking for one month at a time only, not all slots listed may be available by the time you book so you may need to consider flexible dates.
* Due to lower team availability duing the busy festival period of October/ November, we offer fewer slots at this time of year.
