As states reopen and communities prepare for post-pandemic recovery from COVID-19 and systemic racism, FAA's Arts Impact Initiative will host a panel discussion:
to address timely questions regarding the future of creative labor and economies and to provide relevant information and resources for decision-making across the arts and culture sectors.
