A shout out to artists across the South West help make the sector more supportive for all
By Susie Watkins 2nd Mar 2021
The team at Visual Arts South West is looking for ten LGBTQIA+ artists or artworkers to join a special advisory group which campaigns to make the arts sector more inclusive, safe and supportive.
The programme, Together We Will, has sent out an open call for any artists to support the advocacy work.
On its site it writes: " The safety of LGBTQI+ people continues to be compromised by homophobia, biphobia, transphobia and/or heterosexism. Though cultural organisations have increased their focus on social justice and inclusivity, progress has been slow and major gaps in the knowledge and training of teams continue to result in unfair treatment of LGBTQIA+ cultural workers – especially of trans and non-binary people."
Each Advisory Group member will attend one meeting on 24 March 2021, and receive a stipend of £75 for their participation.
