The ShapeShifter Plus Open Call Program is designed to provide a platform for artists of all backgrounds and disciplines to showcase their work in an inclusive and supportive environment. We welcome applications from emerging and established artists who are seeking unique opportunities to present their projects, whether in music, visual arts, dance, theater, or interdisciplinary forms.
We offer a free, no-cost platform for serious and creative artists to present their projects. For the artists, you will receive up to onehour of presentation time, our sound engineer and backline and front of house. The selection process will go through our team with our Artistic Director.
This program is an integral part of our mission to support innovative work and create equitable opportunities for artists. It is supported by various funding sources of our organization and donors.

ShapeShifter Plus is proud to collaborate with organizations, like the Afro Latin Jazz Alliance, on their youth music education program, the Fat Cats.
Our Young Adults Program will include workshops, masterclasses, talks with well-known musicians, and performances for up-and-coming musicians dedicated to developing their craft.
Check out Fat Cats Open Rehearsals on Sundays at ShapeShifter! (Oct to June)
Every Wednesday, ShapeShifter Lab hosts an open jam session where musicians of all genres and skill levels come together to create, collaborate, and experiment. It’s a space for community, creativity, and spontaneous musical expression—whether you’re an emerging artist or a seasoned performer.
ShapeShifter Plus also loves to collaborate with visual artists. The current exhibition is curated by the Good Neighbors of Park Slope.

Featured Artists will curate a month of performances, workshops, and interviews with fellow musicians. They will also record educational content for TuneBend, a new format for music education created by Shapeshifter Lab Productions.
