In-Dialogue Series
presented by the #notwhite collective with City of Asylum
Artists and arts administrators crossing boundaries and borders, working to decolonize the arts sector one coversation at a time
The #notwhite collective in-Dialogue series features candid conversations with local and national BIPOC, AALANA, indigenous and immigrant artists and arts administrators from Pittsburgh and beyond, who are crossing boundaries and borders, working to decolonize the arts sector one conversation at a time.
The series reimagines the past and present history of the arts sector by engaging and presenting the wealth of experience, strategies, and tactics of the global majority, notwhite descendants, inheritors of colonialism, indigenous and immigrants who navigate a predominantly white arts sector. Our series goal is to celebrate and recognize arts and cultural workers, especially those who tend to be under the radar and forgotten about. Speakers represent the Greater Western Pennsylvania region as well as National Leaders in the Arts. Thanks to our Funder and Partner The Arts and Equity Reimagined Fund, and City of Asylum Pittsburgh.

The City of Asylum Pittsburgh builds a just community by protecting and celebrating creative free expression. We provide sanctuary to endangered literary writers, so that the writers can continue to write and their voices are not silenced. We offer a broad range of free literary, arts, and humanities programs in a community setting to build social equity through cultural exchange. And by transforming blighted properties into homes for our programs, we anchor neighborhood economic development.
