2022-23 National Leaders of Color Fellowship Program
Fifty-two BIPOC arts and culture leaders from across the country participated in a strategic leadership development program for BIPOC leaders committed to the advancement of cultural equity in the arts that emphasizes policy and data in the arts, leadership, culture of care, and strategic foresight through an advocacy lens.
An expansion of Creative West’s Emerging Leaders of Color (ELC) program, this collective support and commitment from the collaborative of the six U.S. regional arts organizations (USRAOs) Arts Midwest, Mid-America Arts Alliance, Mid Atlantic Arts, New England Foundation for the Arts, South Arts and convener Creative West aims to invest in diverse arts leadership in each respective region and across the nation. This inaugural national cohort will build on the success of Creative West’s ELC program, which has been partnering with and supporting 100+ BIPOC arts and culture leaders since 2010.
