The Residency — Pourteala Creative Talent Application

Pourteala · West Adams, Los Angeles

The Residency

Creative Talent Application

We are not looking for performers.

We are looking for people who feel like they were already supposed to be in this room.

This is an intimate after-hours wellness lounge. The room speaks first. Your art supports it.

Apply for The Residency

Find your
place in the room.

Live Music

Acoustic, ambient, and soft. Guitar, keys, strings, harp, flute, sound bowls, soft vocals. The room is the instrument. You are the breath.

Live Painting

Create in real time while the room moves around you. Your canvas becomes part of the evening. Your process is the experience.

Sound Healing

Sound baths, tuning forks, crystal bowls, breathwork. Hold the room in resonance. Give people something they did not know they needed.

Spoken Word
and Poetry

Words that land. Intentional, curated, and felt. Pourteala is a literary space. Bring your truth into it.

The room
speaks first.

Pourteala is an intimate after-hours wellness lounge with 30 seats. All performances must remain at low ambient volume. No DJs, live drums, amplified electric sets, or high decibel performances.

Think background acoustic, ambient keys, soft vocals, string arrangements, sound bowls. If your practice requires amplification or high volume, this may not be the right room for you right now.

We are not limiting your art. We are protecting the experience of everyone in the room — including you.

Tell us
who you are.

We review every application personally. Approved artists receive a confirmed session date and residency details within 48 hours.
