Solidarity Statement | A Message to the Ucross Community

Ucross stands with those who are demanding an end to racism, brutality, and all forms of discrimination against individuals and communities of color.
 
As an arts organization, Ucross believes that art, artists, and cross-cultural conversation play a powerful role in social change. We know that art can both bind us together and break down the barriers between us, by increasing understanding and empathy. We have always been, and remain even more committed to supporting, amplifying, and celebrating the voices of artists of color in our community, particularly Black artists, Native artists, Latinx artists, and Asian artists. We join with our fellow artist communities across the country and the world in this important work.

Our heart goes out to the many victims. We are committed to working tirelessly to help the world heal, and forge a better future. We are listening, and we intend to learn and take action.
