Anti-Racism Virtual Town Halls
As an organization, Calgary Arts Development has committed ourselves to bettering our systems regarding equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA).
To continue the conversation about the deep-seated racism that exists within our communities and systems, and how we can further develop anti-racist policies and practices governing our work, we have scheduled anti-racism virtual town hall gatherings for every other Wednesday in July and August. The purpose of the gatherings is to host deeper conversations that will lead to possible actions and decisions as we deal with current inequities in the sector and work with a broader community toward positive action.
The anti-racism virtual town halls will take place on Wednesdays, July 15; July 29; August 12; and August 26, 2020 from 3:00 to 4:30pm MDT.
The virtual town halls will take place through Zoom and will be interpreted in American Sign Language (ASL) with a live transcription available. Registration is required at the following links.
