&lt;p&gt;The world is listening and responding to social injustice across America and the Black Lives Matter movement. Last month we gathered via Virtual Open Space Discussions to discuss how we, as arts and culture professionals, can support the change that needs to happen in our organizations and in the field.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please join us as we continue these conversations in another round of Virtual Open Space Discussions. Bring your questions and engage in meaningful discussions with your peers around our theme &amp;ldquo;Anti-Racism and the Arts and Cultural Sector: A Moment for Response and Ideas, Continued.&amp;rdquo; This event is open to anyone in the community. Feel free to spread the word and invite your colleagues to join us.&lt;/p&gt;
