Armory Center for the Arts

The Armory Center for the Arts will develop and implement "Kitchen Cabinet to Communal Table: Nourishing Relationships Through the Arts" - a new initiative to strengthen the organization's ability to serve the public through a cultural equity lens and build on a foundation of community organizing strategies. This initiative will include sustained professional development opportunities - including anti-racism and community organizing training - for staff and board members. The Center will add a community organizer position to the staff, hold monthly community engagement events, and organize two corresponding culminating exhibitions. As a result of this initiative, the Center will be better able to deliver culturally relevant programs and respond to diverse community needs.
