Join us for a discussion about how Boston-area artists can promote themselves and their communities with a focus on inclusivity and representation. Representation matters in all sectors, but how does Boston stack up in the arts? Hear from a panel of experts in the Boston arts world about their experiences, ideas, and latest work to make the creative sector more diverse – and why these efforts are so important to our City.

Hear from Julie Burros, City of Boston Chief of Art and Culture, Catherine Morris, Founder and Executive Director of BAMS Fest, and Sneha “Imagine” Shrestha, City of Boston AIR Fellow; moderated by Todd McNeel, Media Coordinator at the Boston Lyric Opera. Stick around after the discussion to meet the panelists and enjoy light refreshments provided by Industrious.

Co-presented by SPARK Boston and Friends of Fort Point Channel as part of the SPARK Boston Chief Chat series.
