This Sunday instead of our usual discussions, we are having a drop in planning session on zoom. This will cover new meeting structures, topics, ideas, and more. Feel free to come and go as you're able too. We do encourage you to pop in if you can, even just to listen to our thoughts moving forward. As usual, the link will be sent out 30 minutes before the call which will take place for 1 hour 3PST/6EST this Sunday January 10th. We hope to see many of you there!

We will be dedicating this discussion to coming up with solid ideas and plans for change that we can incorporate in our everyday lives during the next 4 years. We recognize the work is still far from over even after electing Joe Biden, so we would like to open the floor to the voices who are often silenced and swept under the rug.

We will be discussing how to be a better ally within the arts community, across artistic platforms. We will be discussing topics such as diversity, representation, and access. If time permits, we will also talk about art as a vessel for change. All are welcome, regardless of your level of participation in the arts (audience, student, professional, etc.)

Throughout our previous discussions on allyship, listening has been a common thread on how we can be better allies. However, the act of listening is not so simple. This meeting we will share our own experiences of listening in frustrating situations and we will learn techniques on how we can do better in the future.
