What's bothering you right now?
What's got you inspired?
Whose voice do you think is exactly what we need right now?
Don't
keep it to yourself! Send those thoughts our way, along with any other topics, ideas, speakers, and stories that you believe need to be part of the conversation next
year at the Annual Convention!
In a national moment that feels at times deeply disconnected, and at other times highly energizing, how can arts and culture create and sustain genuine community
and connection? Tell us the topics, concepts, theories, and practices that can drive our community, connection, and action. Your ideas will directly inform the creation
of 25-30 main conference breakout sessions representing the full breadth of what is concerning and exciting advocates today!
To submit your ideas, visit
http://convention.artsusa.org/ideas
between now and October 15!

GENUINE COMMUNITY. In 2019, the Annual Convention lands in the strong
Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, situated at a confluence of rivers in the center of the country. In this place, two cities, different in many ways but also deeply interconnected, continue to carry a spirit of deep, honest desire for community, human
interaction, and collaborative progress. People mingle here, sometimes smoothly, sometimes in difficult dances, like the water that flows all around this place—and people persist in pursuing that connectivity, moving towards equity, and recognizing the deep
and long history of the land, communities, and traditions that have come before.
We'll wade deep into conversations about different lived experiences, tradition and transformation, and the need to pursue and bolster genuine, honest community connection wherever we can. In a country still struggling under the weight of great divides, let
us surprise and challenge ourselves as we explore our power and responsibility as culture-makers to strengthen the bedrock of our communities, advance with generosity and good intention, and make our places the healthiest, most vibrant, and most equitable
they can be.
In the Twin Cities, let us come together and center genuine community—in all the beautiful, diverse, and surprising ways that only arts and culture can.
