We see this time of global crises, from COVID-19 to the uprisings for justice, as an opportunity to rethink, re-evaluate, and redesign systems that do not sustain artists of marginalized communities. While the Mountain West has been an incubator for artists in dance, theatre, music, visual and literary arts, and film, it is also a region that presents challenges and obstacles to creativity.

This fall, UtahPresents will convene six panels focused on artists in these disciplines, beginning a conversation about equity and creativity.

All panels run from 2 PM - 3:30 PM, Mountain Time. They will be recorded for later viewing.

September 16: Dance
October 14: Theatre
October 28: Music
November 4: Public & Visual Art
November 18: Film
December 2: Literary Arts
