If body language is universal, dance is intended for all. Boston is a “majority minority” city, full of people from all over world. So why don’t the dance halls and stages in Boston fully represent our city’s cultural diversity?

Join the Network for Arts Administrators of Color at the Boston Center for the Arts for a panel discussion with leaders of color in the dance community. Artists and administrators Melissa Alexis, Ashton Lites, Ana Masacote, and Jenny Oliver will discuss the challenges of creating work and opportunities in a predominantly white field.

About the Conversations with Leaders of Color in the Arts Series
Moving on Up: Advancing Leaders of Color in Dance is the third and final installment in a genre-specific continuation of last season’s conversation series, that shines a spotlight on people of color in leadership positions in the Boston arts sectors. Building on Paving the Way, Amplifying Voices, and The Path Forward, Conversations with Leaders of Color in the Arts gets to the heart of cross-sector learnings that can be adopted to create more equitable leadership opportunities for people of color in arts administration. Moving on Up: Advancing Leaders of Color in Dance follows December’s panel, Allegro Vivace: Advancing Leaders of Color in Classical Music, and May’s panel Curating a New Culture: Leaders of Color in the Visual Arts.
