Join us for an inspiring virtual gathering with leaders from Black Music Action Coalition (BMAC) and Asian Opera Alliance — two organizations doing vital work to transform representation, equity, and advocacy in the arts.
In this 90-minute live session you’ll hear from Melody Chang (asian Opera Alliance) and Willie “prophet” stiggers (Black music action coalition) about how they build thriving inclusive communities, hold systems accountable, and support artists from historically marginalized backgrounds. Whether you’re a performer, arts administrator, educator, or advocate — this is an open space to learn, connect, ask questions, and get inspired.
