Surging demands for #racialjustice are shining a light on inequities across society, including the #arts sector, where only a small fraction of funding goes to artists of color. @HeliconCollab, @Art4JusticeFund, and others offer ways forward. bit.ly/2CUmXle

So proud of this new report with @SpringboardArts. A new way of thinking about arts based community that puts people and creativity at the center.
#CreativePeoplePower is a new report and framework for combining creativity-centered and people-centered development to build strong, healthy, and resilient #communities.
Thanks to @HeliconCollab for their work to make this report possible!
