Open Space, our Artist Connectivity Series.
The International Association of Blacks in Dance (IABD), in partnership with Francine Sheffield (Sheffield Global Arts Management) and Kristopher McDowell (KMP Artists), presents Open Space, an episodic series devoted to addressing pressing issues in the field of dance.
Open Space uplifts, highlights, and engages artists of African Ancestry or Origin. This casual, virtual platform welcomes Black artists and allies at all stages in their careers. Open Space exists for meaningful dialogue, discourse, and debate about matters affecting the field. Past topics have included disparities and opportunities in funding, activism in the arts, health and well-being.
Each unique and collaborative episode includes three to four Artists, a Host, and Co-Host. Online participants from the community are welcomed and encouraged to submit questions in real-time. Episodes are 90 minutes with loose programming parameters to keep it engaging and fun.
