Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion in the Arts Circuit Recordings + RSVP to the Spring 2021 Antiracism in Action Event!

Last fall, ODUS Arts announced the kickoff of their newest program: The Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion in the Arts Circuit (EDI Circuit). This program encourages collaboration between alumni mentors and student leaders of performing arts groups while working to center equity, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism in Princeton’s arts community. 

Thirty-five student leaders across a variety of arts groups served as the inaugural cohort. They were mentored by Princeton Alumni Ronee Penoi ‘07, Kelvin Dinkins, Jr. ‘09, and Adam Hyndman ‘12, collectively the Alumni Arts Alliance (A3). Since October, they have attended a series of conversations and guest speaker panels that explored the intersection of artistry and antiracism in the context of understanding systems/structures, equitable recruitment, and building trust in the arts community. The program concluded with a multi-day Summit.
