We would be very interested to hear these responses as well.

 

As the nation’s 9th most diverse city, Aurora’s AIPP Commission and Program recently adopted and Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity statement and are now working at implementing those goals.  It is challenging, and too soon to know what will be effective and what will not.  Change takes time.

 

We would also be interested to hear from anyone with policies or language specifically addressing issues of authenticity and cultural appropriation.

 

Thank you.

Subject: Adding Diversity to your Collection

 

Hi PAN,

 

This might be an odd question, but I wanted to see what everyone’s strategies were for adding more diversity to their public art collection, both through the artists selected and the subject matter of the works. I’m not sure if this has been a session at the conference before, but it might be a good one to do sometime.

 

Thanks for your help and suggestions!

 

Emily
