If you’re curious about the future of cultural institutions, there’s so much to learn from Kemi Ilesanmi. As the executive director of the Laundromat Project we’ll be hearing how she positions herself and the institution with striking clarity, towards making New York City a better place by bringing people together, and touching the lives of places through art and culture. We discuss the importance of how histories are written, the necessity of acknowledging other knowledges, and the essential economic dimension of gaining access to the cultural field, and why focusing on people of color matter, today!
