Lincoln Center Activate: July 2020 Convening

Lincoln Center Activate, a new professional development initiative, kicked off July 21–24. With over 1700 registered participants, the opening virtual convening brought together teaching artists, educators, community artists, and arts leaders to build a global network that supports arts professionals in a changing landscape. Through dynamic speakers, innovative panels, immersive workshops, art making opportunities, and mentoring with experienced practitioners, participants honed their skills and developed their leadership potential amid a community of arts professionals. Offering year-round opportunities for engagement, Activate connects and inspires leaders in the education and community engagement fields to spark change in classrooms, communities, and beyond.
