The open call is for UK-based, global majority-identifying artists and musicians, collaborations and artist collectives. It seeks primarily sound-based interpretations the ethos of improvisation, intuition and experimentation to nurture alternative cultural discourses.
Applications open on Monday 15 July, and close on Wednesday 31 July 2024. www.diasporasnow.com/turner-lates-open-call
