2020 Annual Convention + Public Art & Civic Design Conference

Annual Convention and Public Art & Civic Design Conference 

Virtual Convening, June 23—25, 2020 

At Americans for the Arts, we are working to gather the arts field together this summer to better understand the current crisis, how we are responding to it, and how we can move toward recovery.  

With these goals in mind, Americans for the Arts has transformed the in-person 2020 Annual Convention and Public Art & Civic Design Conference into a virtual convening, to be held on June 23-25. While we will miss gathering in person, we are excited to deliver the same quality breakout sessions, keynotes, and networking opportunities directly to your home. We hope you join us at this critical time, coming together as a field.

The 2020 Annual Convention and Public Art & Civic Design Conference was always going to be about convergence, the bridging of different communities, and the role of the arts in healing us after crisis—all of this has become even more pressing in our current circumstances. We look forward to brainstorming solutions, sharing our challenges, and coming together as an arts community this June!
