The Common Field Convening is an itinerant annual gathering created by and for the field of visual artists' organizations.

The Common Field Convening Miami 2016 focuses on arts organizing in a time of accelerated capitalism. The four-day program includes panels, breakouts, skill-shares, tours, and celebrations. This Miami convening is organized by BFI (Bas Fisher Invitational), Cannonball, Dimensions Variable, and Locust Projects, with an alliance of Miami organizers and support from national Common Field staff and members.  

The Common Field Convening explores the values and practices of experimental artists' organizations working today. This year's program intentionally incorporates a variety of formats for intimate conversation, peer-to-peer exchange, and cross-pollination of participants. The convening will also provide forums for Common Field members to assemble, share findings, and strategize trajectories for the organization in the year ahead. 

See you in Miami!
