Imagine all the history women in your family and community have witnessed. You can help us continue to share stories of ordinary women who have made an extraordinary impact across the nation. By donating, you’re not just supporting us — you’re amplifying the message that women’s stories matter. Since we launched charter membership during Women’s History Month, our community has grown to 45 states and D.C. Celebrate six months of supporting women’s history by helping us grow to 50 states by September 1!

The Pathways Program is about sector change - to help make arts, culture, and heritage spaces safer for the humans who work, volunteer, and participate in the arts. From the people who are leading change within our sector, to the ones that want to spark change but don’t know where to begin, the Pathways Program offers a learning-to-action approach to support systems change within your organization’s specific context. In recent years, our sector has worked to become more equitable and just, but there is far more we need to do individually, in our organizations, and at a sector level. This work is ongoing and requires intentional steps to take statements and values into action. The Pathways Program seeks to bring together a community of learners to make a shared commitment to implementing principles of equity and access in arts, culture, and heritage organizations in BC. On June 25th we are excited to share more information about this program, guidelines for applying, and a timeline for the 2024/2025 program. Visit www.manypathways.ca to join our mailing list. —------ Image Description: A white square featuring the Pathways Program logo at the bottom. Text at the top reads: "Want to learn more? Register for our upcoming info session: June 25th, 2pm PDT." Behind the text is an image of a country path, with a green field on the left side, a row of trees on the right, and sun shining through a cloudy sky. BC Museums Association, Rural Arts Inclusion Lab, GVPTA Theatre and Arts BC’s logos are featured bottom right. #Pathways #ArtsBC #BCArtsCouncil #BCMuseumsAssociation #GVPTATheatre #RuralArtsInclusionLab #BCArts #BCNonprofit #NonprofitArts #CommunityArts #Equity #Accessibility #Nonprofit #NonprofitLeadership #ProfessionalDevelopment #SectorChange

Vital Arts exists to address the multifaceted challenges that artists face today, but we cannot do it alone. We need your support to continue this critical work. Your donation, whether $5, $50, or $500, helps more artists pay their rent without sacrificing meals. It supports city-wide policies that value artists, provides resources for arts professionals, and fosters mind-changing conversations with stakeholders. Bit by bit, we are building a thriving arts ecosystem. Bit by bit, we are improving conditions for every artist, arts worker, and resident with a system of care and a big-picture approach. Bit by bit, we are creating a world that truly values the arts as vital. https://lnkd.in/gpyYdcjk

We share concern about changes to Arts Council England’s policies for regularly-funded organisations – new cautions about activity that is - done by individuals 'in a personal capacity' - 'overtly political or activist' - 'likely to be in breach of your funding agreement' As the Arts Council acknowledges, freedom of expression is essential for a thriving cultural sector in this country. So too is the 'arm's length principle' that ensures public money for the arts is given independently of government, allowing for pluralism and challenge. It has always been part of an artist’s job to question, disturb and be a thorn in the side of established ideas. The UK's tradition of arts funding follows an arms-length principle that is designed to interfere with that vital role as little as possible. The Charity Commission has robustly upheld charities' right to engage in political activity, even where this risks triggering controversy. We hope Arts Council England can do the same for those it funds, and be supported in this by the Government. We all benefit, as do the arts, from a more open and expressive democracy and society.

Executive & Artistic Director, Founder - Strategic Planning, Program Development, and Organizational Culture
We asked this question today in our session “From Welcoming to Cooperation: Creating Spaces of Belonging and Purpose” at the Nonprofit Association of Washington. What becomes possible for you when you feel you belong? For our community? P.S. Music can be a great way to create spaces of belonging.

Theatre is history. It gives audiences a snapshot of people's narratives during a specific period. That's why ensuring these stories get written and heard is crucial. Black representation matters, not just during Black History Month, but every month. For this reason, we're committed to building a platform that creates more equitable casting and hiring opportunities by removing barriers between theatre groups and talent. #chicagononprofit #blackhistorymonth #nonprofit
