Project Overview

Lanesboro Arts will launch the Equitable Systems Change project for the Lanesboro Arts Gallery as a commitment to a thorough review and change of current systems and processes, based on detailed recommendations to align practices with equity values and more deeply serve BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ artists. This project was prompted by requests from BIPOC and LGTBQIA+ artists and includes the creation of 1) the Lanesboro Arts BIPOC Artist Advisory Committee; 2) creation of the Equity Exhibition Selection Committee; 3) help to launch an education program with the Lanesboro Public Schools, to provide four in-classroom educational opportunities.
