THE INVITATION

THE INVITATION: for artists who have considered change when the stage isn't enuf, is a public civic gathering in New York City in advance of the mayor's First 100 Days in office. At a pivotal moment of transition and real possibility, we’re convening artists, organizers, policy leaders, and directly impacted community members for an evening of dialogue and collective response. The program will feature a moderated conversation with members of the mayoral transition team alongside a shared artistic offering. This is a chance for the community to speak up and help shape what comes next as NYC enters a new political chapter.

Panlists include: Ligia Guallpa (Workers Justice Project), Jasmine Gripper (Working Families Party), Zakiyah Ansari (Alliance for Quality Education), Sarita Daftary-Steel (Freedom Agenda), Kamilah Forbes (Apollo Theater), and Chris Myers.

Moderated by: Qween Jean and Zhailon Levingston

Featuring performances and work by: Ben Wexler, S T A R R busby, Maleek Rae, Stephanie Pacheco, Nia Akilah Robinson, and more!

Presented by Broadway Advocacy Coalition in partnership with The Public Theater
