From block-booking to professional development to simple camaraderie the ILPN is a valuable resource for Illinois arts professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Illinois Performing Artists Roster - Coming Soon! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Illinois Performing Artists Roster is being created in collaboration between the Illinois Presenters Network and the Illinois Arts Council.  This directory will compile Illinois performing artists, companies, and ensembles that tour the state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Illinois Artists Roster features Illinois touring artists, companies, and groups working in dance, music, performance poetry, spoken word, storytelling, theater, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roster artists are professional performers who demonstrate artistic skills, creative programming, and have a history of touring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Illinois Performing Artists Roster is intended to be used by Illinois presenters, including schools, libraries, park districts, arts and community organizations, and performing arts presenters, to identify artists, companies and groups to perform in their communities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
