Those interested in yoga, mindfulness, social media, artist management or event production are also welcome to apply to the "Apprentice Track”.

Program Description

THE POPUP can only be described as equal parts Artist Residency, Collaborative Exhibition, Creative Conference, Cultural Excursion and Imagination Bootcamp. Creatives of every discipline are invited to apply for an experience that can only happen in one town, with one team, at one time. We are thrilled to be hosting our Nashville event at the iconic and historic Union Station Hotel where we will participate in our daily creative sessions, catered meals and 5 star accommodations. A jam packed schedule filled with guest speakers, panel discussions, tours, museums, concerts, podcast recordings, workshops and more... we'll participate in a pre-planned collaboration with Nashville musicians midweek and finish our time together with a climactic, experiential collaboration. Field trips to The Parthenon, Music Row, Schermerhorn Center, Printer's Alley and the Ryman Auditorium will inspire our work and fuel our thesis. If you're looking for a unique, creative experience... check us out.
