🎤 At the close of our 10th Anniversary Symposium, we gather not just to reflect—but to honor. Join us for a powerful Awards Ceremony recognizing cultural leaders who have redefined what it means to build, protect, and imagine community-rooted arts institutions—especially those led by Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, and all People of Color. These visionaries have not only sustained our sector in challenging times—they’ve expanded its possibilities, ensuring the arts remain a force for justice, belonging, and joy. 🗓️ Thursday, June 5 | 4:30 PM 📍BRIC Stoop 🏆 Honoring: ❇️ Melody Capote – Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute ❇️ Dr. Vedet Coleman-Robinson – Association for African American Museums ❇️Quanice Floyd – Arts Administrators of Color ❇️ Diane Fraher – Amerinda ❇️Lisa Gold – Asian American Arts Alliance (A4) ❇️ Stephanie Johnson-Cunningham – Museum Hue ❇️ Kimberly Olsen – NYC Arts in Education Roundtable ❇️Emma Osore – Blackspace ❇️Lucy Sexton – New Yorkers for Arts & Culture ❇️ Ayesha Williams – The Laundromat Project ✨ Their leadership is a living archive of what it means to serve with purpose, advocate with courage, and create with community in mind.

‼️ UPDATE: We’re thrilled to announce that Sarah Calderon, Executive Director of Creatives Rebuild New York, has joined the lineup for Panel #2: Arts Viability – Meeting the Moment. Sarah brings a wealth of experience in funding systems, sustainability, and economic justice for artists—adding significant depth to a conversation about what it truly takes to build viable futures for arts institutions across NYC.
