Arts Administrators of Color Network

Founded in July 2016, the Arts Administrators of Color Network (AAC) is a service organization that focuses on networking and community building through the arts. We are advocates who continue to fight for equity in the arts through collaborations, forums, and outlets that provide a voice for arts administrators and artists of color where there may not be one.

AAC is a 501(c)3 organization, made possible through generous donations.

Since its creation in 2016, the Arts Administrators of Color Network has held over 100 events (virtual and in-person), maintains a Facebook group that reaches over 3,500 members and a listserv that reaches nearly 17,000 readers.

Mission

The Arts Administrators of Color Network is a support network that harnesses the power of artists, arts administrators, and organizations of people of the global majority to connect and expand BIPOC leadership across the U. S. creative sector.

Vision

We envision an anti-racist, anti-oppression, human-centered creative sector where intersectional and transformational justice are the norm and most cultural institutions are led by People of the Global Majority.
