What does it mean to navigate an industry not built with you in mind?This powerful panel brings together BIPOC women and queer artists to share what it means to be the first, the only, or the few in creative spaces. Speaking from the intersections of art, life, family, community, and politics, the panellists reflect on the challenges of holding multiple roles, the resilience required to keep showing up, and how identity and advocacy continually shape their work.
The conversation will explore:
🔸 How deeply identity is woven into creative practice
🔸 The demands of showing up for both community and career
🔸 The ways artists challenge and reshape existing structures
Together, the panel will ask: How can we transform the very structures we move through while making space for the next generation?
This is a space for truth-telling, connection, and imagining new possibilities for the artists yet to come.
This talk hopes to offer space for people of all backgrounds to learn more.
