A monthly, curated reader that will be sent out on the First Friday of every month.

To receive the Monthly Arts Reader, please update your email preferences using the link below! By doing so, it ensures you will receive the Monthly Arts Reader every first Friday of the month! Past Monthly Arts Readers have included focus on: Arts in Health, Board Development, Arts in Education and Arts & Humanities and welcoming the end of another year and plan ahead for a new year to begin. 
UPDATE YOUR ARTS ORGANIZATION:

We’re continuing to streamline and expand our Arts Organization Directory and want to make sure we have the most up to date information. In addition to helping others find you, next year there will be a survey of arts non-profits impacts and work in South Dakota as a part of the Arts & Economic Prosperity Study 6. Thank you for helping us to promote all the wonderful creative arts work happening in South Dakota!

VIRTUAL/ONLINE EVENTS:
Black Arts Funding Summit | Virtual

“The history of predominantly White-led institutions benefiting from the disenfranchisement of the Black artist and community is well documented. From slavery to Jim Crow, to post Civil Rights era, to today, Black artists have been continuously excluded from the canon, been wrongly categorized, and historically disregarded as obvious by the egregious lack of Black staff, leadership, and representation at cultural institutions across the nation.”
-North Carolina Black Artists for Liberation
