Materials for the Arts helps arts organizations (and you as a member of The Field!) realize their visions by providing free materials to support creative programs and productions. Supplies are gathered from companies and individuals that no longer need them and redistributed to artists that do. In the process, hundreds of tons are removed from the waste stream every year and kept out of landfills, helping to sustain our environment and promote reuse and waste reduction while enhancing the cultural life of their city. To register for MFTA:
  • Visit www.mfta.org and click on Recipients, and then Apply Now to submit an online application.
  • After you have completed the online application form, you will receive an email with a list of supporting documents that are required for processing, which includes documentation of your professional performance activities (i.e. programs and/or flyers).
  • Email patricia@thefield.org after you have completed both steps of the MFTA application process. The Field will confirm your application within the next four business days.
  • Upon The Field’s confirmation MFTA then takes up to two weeks to process requests.
  • Once you receive a contract from MFTA, you will be able to make an appointment to begin using their services.
The TDF Costume Collection houses more than 75,000 professionally designed costumes and accessories. Nonprofit performing arts companies (and you as a member of The Field!) can rent these items at low cost. Most of the inventory is contributed by Broadway and Off Broadway productions and costume designers, which means that high quality, and sometimes even award-winning, designs are available. To access the Costume Collection:
  • Email patricia@thefield.org with information on your event, including (1) the name of your production, (2) the size of your house/number of seats, (3) your performance dates, and (4) the names of up to three people authorized to sign out costumes under your membership.
  • Allow up to four business days for The Field to set up a contract with the Costume Collection on your behalf.
  • You will be responsible for dry-cleaning all costumes and returning them within 10 days of the close of the production.
