The Artists of Color Council (AoCC) at Movement Research hosts our first Town Hall Meeting! A community gathering and sharing including AoCC Core members, Council members, and extended community. An opportunity to learn about AoCC programs, ongoing research from community members, and to be in solidarity with artists of color engaged in creative practice around the city!

The Artists of Color Council is a cohort of artists of color addressing cultural diversity, equity, and sustainable structural integration in MR’s operations, programming, outreach, and throughout its extended communities. The council aspires to increase visibility, opportunities, and engagement with resources for artists of color within the field.
