ArtChangeUS: Arts in a Changing America is a new, five-year initiative that seeks to explore and understand the dramatic demographic transformation of the United States and its profound impact on arts and culture. This effort, led by Roberta Uno and based out of the California Institute of the Arts, is creating a vast network of relevant organizations, artists, scholars, idea producers, and resource people across sectors to reframe the national arts conversation at the intersection of arts and social justice. Through a carefully curated series of special events, performances, presentations, and conferences, ArtChangeUS will serve as an urgently needed catalyst that brings unheard, leadership voices in the arts to the forefront of social discourse, arts production, and community change.

Our goals embed the project at the nexus of arts and social equity. They are to:

  • Reframe the arts conversation to understand and respond to the cultural assets of demographic change;

  • Catalyze and make visible relevant, innovative, artistic work and forward thinking arts practices;

Create opportunities for artists, organizers, and thinkers to connect across sectors in order to introduce new perspectives and collaborative possibilities.

ArtChangeUS has three primary programs:

  • ArtChangeUS REMAP is a series of major high visibility gatherings on arts and changing demographics. Click HERE for ArtChangeUS REMAP: Bay Area, April 15-16, 2016. Click HERE for the 2015 New York City Launch highlights.

  • ArtChangeUS@ is a set of curated, ongoing performances/talks/workshops/interventions at arts and non-arts organizations throughout the United States.

REFRAME: an e-journal is the online platform for Arts in a Changing America where critical essays, reflections, interviews, and a quarterly online journal are assembled and circulated.

I have not been able to watch all of the presentations, but so far I have heard and seen nothing about those of us who make up the diverse group of people with disabilities. Some of us identify as disabled artists, and many of us are multiracial. I am continually amazed that we are routinely ignored, and often erased, in discussions about diversity.
