Predominantly white arts organizations are eager to have a diverse workforce and audience. But what does it take to make people of all races, colors, and creeds feel truly welcome?

Join ArtsBoston for a panel discussion that examines why having a culturally diverse staff ultimately helps an organization run better. What can we gain from inviting traditionally marginalized populations to the table? And how can we do that thoughtfully and intentionally? Hear our panel members talk about their trials and tribulations in recruiting and retaining POC staff members in an effort to make the field more equitable.
