2023 ArtsLink Assembly: The Future is Not What It Used to Be

by NORTH CAROLINA DIGITAL NEWS


CEC ArtsLink presents The 2023 ArtsLink Assembly—a meeting of potent ideas and individual actions, of insights and practices, of artists and institutions, of engaging speakers and active listeners. The 2023 ArtsLink Assembly seeks to spark new ways to dismantle, remember, repair, and reinvent historic frameworks, ideas, and power structures.

How do we build an equitable cultural field activated through a lived process of unsettling and repair?

What would it look like to ground artistic culture in care, through a cultivation of local voices and needs? How might we nurture a transnational network of artists in their vital work on the front lines of social transformation?

What role do we each have to ensure the future is not what it used to be?

Day one features a succession of MANYfestos, thought pieces, presentations, and discussions by leading artists rooted in their unique communities around the world and figures in cultural policy and practice, philanthropy, and social justice.

Day two focuses on the cultural reconstruction of Ukraine and features perspectives from key cultural voices. Emerging from the ideas and issues raised by Ukrainian artists and cultural leaders at last year’s ArtsLink Assembly in Warsaw, the Ukrainian Institute and independent Kyiv-based think tank CEDOS will present a strategy document that distills many of the critical issues facing Ukraine’s cultural future caused by Russia’s war of aggression.
