Kindling Productions presents the seventh edition of 12 Minutes Max Spokane on Thursday, November 12, 2026, at 7:00 pm at Hamilton Studio, 1427 W. Dean Ave., Spokane, WA. Doors open at 6:30 pm. The fall lineup features local artists in dance, film, and music, each presenting a work of 12 minutes or less.
12 Minutes Max gives performing artists from any discipline a low-stakes place to try new ideas, take creative risks, and share their work with a live audience. Kindling Productions created the series to lower the barriers artists often face in getting their work seen. Audiences get a first look at brand-new work from local artists and a view of what is happening in Spokane’s performing arts community right now.

“Every season, we are excited about what the 12 Minutes Max cohort of artists is cooking up, and this edition is no exception! This fall’s group is bringing dance, film, music, and interdisciplinary Indigenous contemporary work to the stage. That’s the beauty of this event: audiences are the first to see new work and get to keep their finger on the pulse of our art community’s heartbeat. By being there to witness these artists, the audience is also supporting the furthering of creation,” said CarliAnn Forthun Bruner, Director and Co-founder of Kindling Productions.

The last two seasons of 12 Minutes Max sold out, and early ticket purchase is encouraged.
