artEquity BIPOC Leadership Circle – Call for Interest Forms
The BIPOC Leadership Circle is a hybrid series beginning January 2024 through June 2024 that prioritizes bringing together BIPOC leaders representing organizations across the United States to provide support, strategies, and systems of accountability in creating dynamic new leadership models that center BIPOC experiences.
We’re extending an invitation to BIPOC leaders to learn more about the program and to submit an Interest Form to join the cohort. Deadline to submit interest is November 17, 2023.
Dates | Location
January–June 2024
Four virtual sessions via Zoom and one in-person retreat experience in Los Angeles, CA.
About the Program
Being a Black, Indigenous, Person of Color (BIPOC) in a predominantly white sector or organization has its challenges. Try doing that as a BIPOC person in a leadership position. Most organizations, even those that are primarily BIPOC or BIPOC-friendly, do not offer systems of support and affirmation for BIPOC leaders.
This hybrid series prioritizes bringing together BIPOC leaders representing organizations across the United States to provide support, strategies, and systems of accountability in creating dynamic new leadership models that center BIPOC experiences.
Who is the program designed for?
Our program is designed to center, support, and address the experiences of BIPOC leaders of cultural institutions and communities. Through a popular education approach, we use our time together to generate conversations, connections, and ideas in order to inspire new leadership paradigms for and by BIPOC leaders. Ultimately, our goal is to create a national shift in leadership values and practices in the art and culture sector.
We are bringing together artists, activists, and organizational leaders who work at the intersection of art and activism. This space is uniquely designed for Leaders of Color and those who identify as: BIPOC, AAPI, MENASA, ALAANA, SWANA, Black/African American, Indigenous/Native, Latinx, Latine, or People of the Global Majority.

Free entry │Call for Online Exhibition / Paper Exhibition Catalog Release
Photographers are invited to submit 1 up to 3 photos addressing the theme.
Online Exhibition Publication on Loosenart.com / August 2024
–
The theme of our online exhibition – and for which it sees the paper release of its catalog – refers to those undefinite places and contexts, fantastic places in which to get lost, places of escape from reality where freedom is experienced by rediscovering that sense of union and harmonious cohesion with the environment. Places that reveal the personal perception of the world and the authentic emotional experience, where the “self” is transported by osmosis into a timeless and “placeless” space.
The call is aimed to photographers, opened to any style, genre and subject.

“Emotion” International Open Call to Artists and Writers—Deadline December 31, 2023
The artist’s and writer’s call for the ArtAscent Art & Literature Journal Emotion issue is now open.
Emotion fills, lifts, erupts, freezes, floods, and empties us. Are we emotions, or are feelings simply impulses that appear and disappear from our consciousness? Does emotion take us to a higher plane of existence or simply along a preprogrammed path? What are we without these feelings? How do we express them? What in our environment triggers them? Are they contagious? Share your interpretation of what is or inspires EMOTION.
