When is JP Porchfest?

• August 19, 2023 from roughly 12-6 pm​.

When can I sign up?

• Signups will open in May 2023 for performers, porch hosts, and volunteers.

Will artists be paid this year?

• Artists who sign up to perform will not be paid this year. We piloted a stipend payment format for artists in 2021 and are still looking into a model that will allow us to pay artists a fair wage and find enough sponsorship that we can sustainably pay every artist who signs up.​

Do I need to live in JP to perform?

• No! We will match you to a porch in Jamaica Plain.​

What if I want to perform on a specific porch/want a specific performer on my porch?

• There will be a place on your signup form to indicate if you have any preferences for where you perform or who will perform on your porch.​

I want to contribute financially as an individual or as an organizational sponsor, what should I do?

• Send us an email at jpporchfest@dunamisboston.org and we will send you our sponsorship package for 2023!​

Do I need to send in footage to be considered to perform at Porchfest?

• No! Everyone who signs up for JP Porchfest will have a chance to perform.​
