From 2020 to 2023, we proudly collaborated with 57 BIPOC creatives for our projects, ASSEMBLAGE™ and SPRLUA. Our central aim has always been to foster an inclusive and cohesive creative network, leveraging music as a catalyst to bring together creators at the intersection of exploration, equitable ownership, and well-being. While celebrating these collaborations, we've recognized that mere representation of diverse voices isn't sufficient to address systemic barriers.
In light of this realization, in 2024, we're excited to announce "Conversas: Who’s Missing In This Room?", an exploratory series of discussions probing deeply into the resource disparities within the arts sector stemming from colonial legacies.
Supported by the Canada Council for the Arts' Strategic Innovation Fund, the outcomes of this endeavor will be disseminated throughout the summer of 2024, in partnership with Interaccess-Toronto and Flumi, as we collectively strive for a more equitable creative landscape.
