Leading ChangeMakers: A Workshop for Expanding NYC Arts Leadership
Please join me for “Leading ChangeMakers: A Workshop for Expanding NYC
Arts Leadership.” This is part of a new initiative that I have been
developing, with support from The New School’s Impact Entrepreneurial

and bias in the workplace, all through the lens of personal and
collective advancement.

Affairs, and Adjunct Professor, New York University’s Steinhardt
School of Culture, Education and Human Development
Sheila McDaniel, Deputy Director, Finance and Operations, Studio
