Creating Cultures and Practices for Racial Equity contains a variety of tools that emerged from Race Forward’s Racial Equity in the Arts Innovation Lab to help artists, arts advocates, culture bearers, and cultural workers to imagine, plan, and implement racial equity strategies in arts organizations.

Whether you’re an arts or cultural practitioner already working with a racial equity team and plan or you’re just beginning the journey towards organizational transformation, these tools can help guide, focus, and reinvigorate your efforts. They can be used to make strategic and equitable decisions in assessing existing or proposed policies, practices, plans, programs, grantmaking, contracting, budgets, and more.

This toolkit includes:

• Useful terms
• Guides, worksheets, and activities for:
  • Racial impacts and equitable outcome assessments
  • Decision making
