Seattle Rep presented (Re)Imagine Arts Criticism livestreaming on the global, commons-based, peer-produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv on Thursday 10 June 2021 at 5 p.m. PDT (Seattle, UTC -7) / 6 p.m. MDT (Denver, UTC -6) / 7 p.m. CDT (Chicago, UTC -5) / 8 p.m. EDT (New York, UTC -4).
Arts criticism has faced a huge shift in recent years with the rise of online journalism and social media, as well as budget cuts affecting arts-focused staff at media outlets. We need new models to build a pipeline for BIPOC journalists, fund careers in arts criticism outside of struggling newspapers & magazines, engage audiences more deeply in arts critique, and create pathways for cross-disciplinary conversations about artists' work. Join us as we re-imagine arts criticism and journalism for this new era.
