651 ARTS: The Past and Future of Culture Architects - Episode 3: Money Mountains

The obstacles faced by 651 ARTS were not unique or unknown to any cultural institutions of color. Specifically, the pursuit of financial support from entities who were more inclined to back predominantly white institutions, looking to cultivate Black audiences. Overcoming systemic barriers by means of partnership, relationship and community is a timeless strategy for folks of color, and one that allowed 651 ARTS to continue its mission of promoting black artistry and cultural exchange. “A Griot is someone who passes on their society’s history, especially through stories, poems and music.” VIRTUAL GRIOT is an original digital series featuring creatives in the role of Griots as they relay the stories responsible for keeping history, tradition, and culture alive. Season 2, 651 ARTS: The Past and Future of Culture Architects, commemorates the organization’s origin story, as told by the powerful Black women who spearheaded it. 651 ARTS (Brooklyn, NY) is a place to create and experience art that is led by centers and celebrates Black voices.
