About this COVID EX(change)

The Americans for the Arts is organizing free peer dialogues to facilitate member exchange around COVID-19 challenges and recovery strategies. These facilitated peer exchanges are a benefit exclusively for Americans for Arts members.

This COVID EX(change) is designed to connect people whose work focuses on fostering inclusive creative economy practices, i.e. practices that center marginalized individuals in the pursuit of reaching their full potential based on their own creativity; and how that work may be shifting in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. These practices may include but are not limited to planning, policy, funding, public and private programmatic work, and arts incubators, etc.

The conversation will explore challenges and positive actions regarding but not limited to:

• what members are doing in the short-term and expect to do as they move into recovery;
• how members are connecting with constituents;
• ways members are working in the context of broader community recovery efforts.

Upon registering, we encourage you to share a few facts and short notes on issues you are working on  as a  warm-up for our COVID-EX(change) conversation. Your confirmation email will provide a link to a brief questionnaire.
