Equity and Diversity: What's Next?

Exchange: Panel Discussion

Throughout the APAM Gathering at DreamBIG Festival, hear from local and international artists, influencers, curators and thinkers in a series of conversations, panels, and provocations.

How do we create more equitable opportunities for diverse artists: First Nations, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse, Persons of Colour, LGBTQI+ and more in the Children’s and Families sector?
