Chroma’s first Climate Crisis Incubator is a day of programming where womxn of color exchange ideas and personal stories, propose strategies, identify challenges, and share resources and information on the climate crisis. The intention of this first incubator is to create a space where folks from our community can enter into a collaborative dialogue that is accessible but stresses urgency.
Chroma is a cross-disciplinary creative studio founded by Ladin Awad, June Canedo, and Sienna Fekete. As a collective, Chroma is intentional in their efforts to diversify industries and nurture a cultural consciousness that centers womxn of color. Chroma offers strategies for innovative programming, visual content, immersive experiences, effective partnerships, and community empowerment.
This event is free and open to the public. Donations are welcome online or at door.
