“Since its inception in 2011, Emergence has convened hundreds of artists and arts workers*, community leaders, and policy makers to exchange knowledge around the theme of Arts & Equity: Leading Social Change. This large-scale multi-day platform is built on issues that Neighbourhood Arts Network and our partners have explored through their work. Centred in all of this, is equity.
*Arts workers include arts administrators, arts educators, arts facilitators, art therapists, and other people using art to strengthen community health and relationships.
CALL FOR COLLABORATION – SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE
Neighbourhood Arts Network will commission individuals and organizations to present equity-based work at Emergence from April to May 2023*.
We welcome perspectives that are intersectional and encourage proposals from Deaf, Mad and Disabled communities, equity-deserving groups including 2SLGBQT+, Indigenous, Black and Persons of Colour, and artists with lived experiences.
