5 Reasons We’re Grateful

Hi friend,

There are so many reasons to celebrate Colored Criticism as we close out 2022! Our community continues to grow and connect people of color in the arts, as well as allied supporters. Some highlights include:

  • Expanding our organizational Board
  • Receiving grant funding from New York State Council in the Arts
  • Sharing the latest in art through our newsletter The Color Edit
  • Enjoying Passion Fruit Dance Company at our Holiday Party
  • Screening our short doc Carnival Queens at the Auntyland Film Festival

We can’t wait to see you in 2023. Support our mission with a year-end donation today!

Yours in celebration,
Tiffany.

Colored Criticism Holiday Party 2022

November 30, 2022

Hi friend! 

Join the Colored Criticism family for our first in-person event since 2020! We’re celebrating the holidays and our continued community with a holiday party. And it’s free thanks to funding from NYSCA and a space grant from Gibney!

We’ll be hosting Passion Fruit Dance Company, a trio featuring choreographer Tatiana Desardouin and dancers Mai Lê Hô and Lauriane Ogay.

In Dance Within Your Dance, Tatiana invites you to connect with the techniques, rhythms and essence of hip-hop and house dance. The performance piece is followed by a lecture/Q&A about race, using “an introspective seed” – a tool designed by Tatiana to start an introspective anti-racist work.

I am *so* excited to see y’all in a few weeks. Spread the word and bring a friend. Let’s get holiday season started off right!

The Aug Edit: On Vacation!

August 30, 2022

Friends, it’s been a minute!

Our newsletter has been on break this summer. While there have been arts happenings of note, there have also been tectonic shifts that absorbed a lot of everyone’s energy. We put our communications on hold knowing that there were other rapid-response messages going out from our activist and journalist partners. You can only read so many emails a day, right?

Yes, we all need a vacation. I get the feeling that everyone is sneaking away based on the out of office messages and Instagram feeds from this month. Folks are taking some time off, whether it’s a staycation, long weekend, or a long-overdue trip abroad. Borders are open, vaccines are flowing, and tickets are booked. This little respite is a luxury, but one that we’re finding a way to include.

As we head into the long weekend, I have a few suggestions if you are looking for a vacation read. All of these novels have protagonists I love and big arts energy!

Yours in summer sun,
Tiffany
