A series of social gatherings designed to amplify BIPOC artists and strengthen relationships with Boulder County Arts organizations.
On Feb 23, BIPOC artists and Boulder County Arts Organizations are invited to join our kick-off event at the Dairy Arts Center, featuring Creative Nations. Founding members will share their current experiences and future plans for Boulder’s first collective and permanent onsite establishment of Indigenous Artists.
We will start at 5:30 p.m. with an informal happy hour. At 6 p.m., the featured artists will present, followed by conversation and the opportunity to enjoy the NAACP’s Walk With Me, a selection of Civil Rights Era photographs from the Ernest C. Withers Collection. We will also share plans and get feedback for developing a Boulder County BIPOC artist directory.
Con·nect is a series for performance, networking and dialogue among BIPOC artists and local arts organizations. The series is co-organized by the Antiracism Action in the Arts Initiative. The initiative was launched in 2020 as a study group composed of representatives from local arts organizations, including Boulder County Arts Alliance, Dairy Arts Center, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, Jewish Community Center, KGNU, the Longmont Museum, the CU Boulder Office for Outreach and Engagement, CU Theatre and Dance, CU Art Museum and the B2 Center. Collectively, the initiative seeks to promote diversity, equity, access, inclusion and fundamental change within historically white arts institutions in Boulder County.
Upcoming events include Thursday, March 31 at the Longmont Museum and an event in April (time/date/location TBD) with CU Boulder students.
