Reignite: Artist Development
Empowering artists to take creative risks and innovate in their work.
About
Reignite is Home Live Art’s ongoing way to support artists making live performance. We provide space, time and resources to help artists develop their work. Since launching in 2020, Reignite has been central to Home Live Art’s mission of creating space for experimentation, collaboration and the development of innovative live performance work.
We make sure local artists get opportunities to grow, while UK-wide residencies bring fresh voices and perspectives to Hastings. As a queer-led organisation, we also dedicate some residencies to LGBTQIA+ artists, reflecting our commitment to supporting underrepresented communities.
