Support for Individual Artists Preconference: Taking Stock
Sunday, October 6
Asian Arts Initiative
This is our time to remove our noses from the grindstones and come together to take stock of our work to support individual artists. The preconference is anchored by three conversations with people who have shaped—and are still shaping—our collective vision. With them, we will consider the roots of our field, what’s important to us right now, and where we might want to go next.
