DEIA Workshop: Diversity on Boards - A Learning Experience

Workshop goal:  Provide arts leaders with the tools necessary to improve and increase the board composition (e.g., racial, gender, socioeconomic, age, sexual orientation/gender identity, etc.) This learning experience defines a number of approaches that have proven promising for exploring board dynamics, including the use of language to further interests, social exchanges, the political context of boards as elements of a pyramid of civic participation, the socialization and acculturation of board members and the composition and representativeness of boards.

All people who work at an arts nonprofit are encouraged to participate, and participation raises an applicant organization's award cap for a DEIA Capacity Building Grant in February 2023.

This workshop will be in-person and masks will be available.  Parking vouchers will be available for the Western Heritage parking garage. Attendees must register by emailing grants@artsfortworth.org
