Chat & Chew
Cultural Instigators
Date: December 11, 2024
We are called to ask the question posed by JD Derbyshire and Cesar Cala at the first Chat & Chew back in June 2020, “what is this moment asking of us?” as artists and settlers on stolen lands/settlers of Treaty 7.
The world is on fire. The context of this moment is overwhelming and how do we root back into how we are in relationship to land and each other to create as artists. What is the moment asking of us?
We will host a breakout room on the following topic:
We want to invite you into an initiative that started up in Calgary in June 2020. A number of us see the importance of keeping equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility (EDIA) concerns front and centre as we go through so much change everywhere including the arts sector.
Please join us at our next Chat & Chew on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, 6 – 7:30pm MT online. For more information and to register visit CHAT & CHEW: What is this moment asking of us?
Note: Please register to receive the Zoom link. Due to security we will be sending the link 30 minutes before the event.
Gatherings will be facilitated by the Cultural Instigators (CI)*. We will gather to collectively discuss topics of EDIA through an anti-racist lens to get grassroots ideas and actions going. Have a question or a proposal for future conversation topics and themes? Send an e-mail to citizenartistsyyc@gmail.com.
