For Everyone in Indiana: Living Our Vision
Join us for a statewide address: For Everyone in Indiana: Living Our Vision, on Tuesday, June 7th at 6:30 p.m. (ET) via Zoom. During this address, we’ll share more about our equity work, upcoming initiatives, and introduce the consulting team who will share how you can get involved to help inform our future.
The IAC has been working alongside the creative sector to deepen our advancement of inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) since the adoption of the agency’s 2017 strategic plan. Some of the highlights of that work include embracing community engagement to deepen the role, relevancy, and value of arts and creativity in communities; IDEA resources, trainings, and workshops; and most importantly, adopting a Cultural Equity statement to guide our work going forward. This has taken shape in changes in our grant programs, as well as in upcoming opportunities.
We invite you to join us for a statewide address: For Everyone in Indiana: Living Our Vision, on Tuesday, June 7th at 6:30 p.m. (ET) via Zoom. During this address, we’ll share our equity work, upcoming initiatives, and introduce the consulting team who will share how you can get involved to help inform our future.
After the presentation, there will be six opportunities for the consulting team to learn from you. Feedback sessions are open to all arts organizations regardless of IAC grant history. Please register for either or both types of session. Participation may be limited to one representative per organization to ensure broad statewide representation.
