Art World Conference: The Future Of Higher Education
This event is part of AWC’s “The Future Of…Series: Beyond Rhetoric, Recognizing Action in The Art World.”
August 10, 2021
6:00pm – 7:30pm
Join Art World Conference for “The Future of Higher Education” with Deborah Obalil, Kymberly N. Pinder, Luciana Scrutchen, and Emily Hanako Momohara.
Recognizing an opening in the current environment to act in ways not previously prioritized, Obalil and several leaders at AICAD institutions initiated the BIPOC Academic Leadership Institute. 94 participants joined in the inaugural year for education, community, and transparency around the system they are working to change from within. Could a change in academic gatekeepers translate to greater diversity in the art world as a whole?
Everyone in the art world from current students and academics to artists, designers, arts administrators, and art historians are encouraged to join this conversation.
