Virtual Action Summit Looks at “What’s Next?”
November 29, 2020—I recently was invited to moderate a discussion with thought leaders representing the nonprofit arts sector and the Broadway industry about the future of the arts in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Convened by the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, the theme of the Virtual Action Summit was “Arts, Culture and Beyond: What’s Next?”. It was interesting to hear the participants share their plans for re-emergence; the recognition that issues of systemic racism must be addressed, along with a positive hope for new work and a new way of working.
