We asked you, our brilliant and creative MCA community, to send in proposals for the MCA program of your dreams. And you delivered!
Presenting: Open Source: a series of programs by you, for you. Join us the first three Thursdays in September to see new faces and learn about new ideas.
Multicultural Alliance Open Mic: Ending Racism in America and Envisioning an Ideal Future
How do we end racism? What does an ideal future look like? Join host Christie Jones for an open mic imagining what the future could be.
This is an open platform, and audience members are encouraged to participate and share their work, though sharing is not required.
Leading up to the open mic, we’re hosting a writing contest! Submit your writing (under 1,000 words) here by Sunday August 30th for a chance to win $100 and a guaranteed slot at the open mic.
This program will be taking place on Zoom.
Works can’t use profanity; only positive, inclusive language. This is a community space open to all people that believe that racism must end. Use your words to inspire the world!
