Emerging Arts Professionals San Francisco Bay Area (EAP) is a network of Bay Area arts and culture workers and emerging leaders who are driven to improve the arts sector together. Through our Equity Framework and four focus areas of Cultural Equity, Regenerative Practice, Arts & Capital, and Creative City, we create models for systemic power shifts, remove assumptions, increase diversity of experience, and re-center marginalized experience and voices (race, ability, gender, sexuality, class, age, health status). By empowering the individual arts worker with personal and professional development, and through the research and development of new models in the field, our network works to shift the industry. Our end goal is an arts industry that is equitable for all people, is a valued and sustainable career sector, and honors the individual arts worker as a creative and whole person.
