ArtsWestchester Advancing Equity Award Organization Award Info Session

The Advancing Equity Award is a cornerstone program in ArtsWestchester’s renewed commitment to social justice and recognizes the cultural community is a leader in shaping a just, fair, and equitable Westchester. The ArtsWestchester Advancing Equity Arts Award commends a non-profit cultural organization that serves residents of Westchester and demonstrates exemplary leadership in advancing social justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA) through and in the arts. Organizations may be nominated for specific programs or initiatives, or for broader service and mission. To support the awardee in its continuing commitment to service, the Advancing Equity Award comes with a $25,000 recognition grant.

An organization that is a leader in EDIA is an ally that demonstrates a strong commitment to advancing their own awareness, knowledge and skills related to diversity, equity, and inclusion; works to elevate the voices of historically underrepresented and marginalized peoples; and promotes a sense of belonging among its employees and the community through its programming, policies, and best practices.
