Respect. Solidarity. Belonging.

Anti-racist change is a long-term, generational endeavor. Enrich Chicago offers arts and culture leaders a variety of identity-based and role-specific antiracist lab spaces as opportunities to come to a greater understanding of their racialized identities and the impact of their social (mis)shaping on their individual leadership practices. These groups are also used as professional learning spaces in which participants reflect on their power, assess their organizational policies, and build a culture of anti-racism within their organizations.

People of White Antiracist Lab

This monthly lab for people who identify as white who are committed to anti-racist work. This includes learning about and addressing white privilege and white supremacy from the inside out, and working to create change in professional and personal settings by addressing these forms of oppression with other people of white. Members also learn about racial equity and anti-racist work, in an effort to uplift, center, and celebrate BIPOC colleagues, audiences, and community members.

The session is held the first Monday of the Month, from 12-1pm.

CEO Antiracist Lab

This antiracist space brings together executive directors of arts and cultural organizations that are members of the Collective Impact Network. Recognizing the unique isolation and pressure of leading transformational change from the top, this group provides a confidential space for honest exchange, mutual support, and collective problem-solving among peers navigating similar challenges.

The group meets monthly to provide spaces for honest dialogue about leading equity transitions - the isolation, resistance, and personal toll of the work.

The session is held on the third (3rd) Friday of each month from 8:30 AM – 10:00 AM
