We have released our Report “Funding Equity: Crisis to Sustainability”
Funding Equity follows Enrich Chicago’s 2018 study, A Portrait of Inequity, which illustrated that Chicago arts funding was not fully inclusive of BIPOC arts organizations.
Funding Equity shows that the picture has changed since A Portrait of Inequity. In 2020-2023, the scale and nature of BIPOC arts organizations’ presence in the foundation funding pool was strikingly different from 2013-2015. Additionally, it includes a new framework for understanding how foundation practices can be supportive of BIPOC arts organizations.
With a multidisciplinary approach, TDC, along with our community partners and steering committee have constructed an incredibly robust and cohesive report that is sure to be a valuable resource to all of us within Chicago’s Arts and Culture Sector.
