THEATER OF CHANGE - The Theater of Change (TOC) brings together theater artists, policy experts and students, and advocates who have first-hand experience with the systems we need to change to learn from each other and expand their capacity, community, and impact. This intensive workshop enables participants to blend the practices of artistry, law, policy, and advocacy led by people with direct experience to produce artistic projects with the potential to make tangible impact on the inequitable, unjust, and racist systems.
The Artivism Fellowship is a seven-month incubation process that provides two participating artist-activists the tools and resources to blend artistry, law, policy, and community engagement while leveraging their creative talents to drive meaningful systemic change.
IMPACT PROJECTS - BAC’s signature Impact Projects leverages artivism tools to advance current campaigns to transform the criminal legal system in New York City and State.
Community Building:
ARTS IN ACTION FESTIVAL - The annual Arts in Action Festival is the premier space for organizations and individuals working at the intersections of arts and advocacy to come together to showcase their work, explore opportunities for collaboration, celebrate the resilience of the justice-impacted community, and focus the city’s attention on the many ways that the “justice” system is failing to actually create justice for so many inhabitants of New York City.
