To support the alliance’s 2024 convening, an annual gathering of Black trustees serving on the boards of art museums across the country. The guiding theme of the convening, to be held in concert with EXPO Chicago (April 11–13, 2024), is “the Civic Role of the Museum Trustee.” The theme builds on Chicago’s legacy of civic activism and its vibrant Black culture, which are reflected in programming offered in partnership with local cultural organizations. Topics for discussion include board diversification, artist equity, and the role of artists and art museums in Black communities.
