About this Event
/// SESSION DESCRIPTION ///
How can the arts, festivals, and public events reflect the region's diversity while providing access and a sense of belonging for all? In this important conversation, we will dive into what "inclusive culture" means in a community setting and how it shapes the lived experience of residents. This talk aims to spark a deeper dialogue about the power of cultural events in creating connected, diverse spaces.
Our speakers—two passionate advocates and leaders of Charlottesville's cultural initiatives—will share their personal experiences and insights on their involvement in projects that are making a difference in Charlottesville today. The conversation will also explore ways that Charlottesville and Albemarle County can build even more inclusivity in their cultural programming.
All tickets are donation based on a sliding scale ($15 - $35).
