Each year, The Forest reimagines itself with new art, fresh experiences, and a healthy dose of inspiration.

The Art Installation Sponsorship program is the chance to bring dreams sparked by The Forest to life.

For the ninth year in a row, builders and artists are invited to bring something new to Electric Forest – in The Hangar, greeting the Forest Family, in Tripolee field, on Main Street, or even, in very select circumstances, in Sherwood Forest itself!

Award

HQ will provide:

• A grant of between $1.00 and $5,000.00 towards the costs of building your installation
• Working credentials for a build team of up to five (5) people
• Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner provided for your team during your setup and teardown, and vendor vouchers provided on festival days
• A liaison for your team to assist with any production needs
• Power hookup for your installation
