Conversations about Creativity
For womxn of color by womxn of color
What to Expect
Womxn of Color Summit: The Art of Creative Living is a virtual 5-day summit taking place from July 27 to July 31, 2020. Through conversation and storytelling, the summit is a communal celebration of amazing womxn of color embodying their creative potential.
Live interactive workshops by community facilitators will be available for all attendees throughout the week of the summit. Let’s create something together, whether it’s with our hands, our breath or our bodies.
We are inherently creative beings, so let’s talk about how we can create a life for ourselves on our terms. How can we express the spirit within us that calls for us to make something? To build, design, make - discover?
This summit is for womxn of color who are interested to learn from our speakers and workshop hosts on how to pursue liberation, own their power, commit to their life, empower those around them, thrive within their ancestral practices, connect back to their roots and create the life they want without limiting themselves.
We are so grateful you are here.

How do I purchase tickets?

The sliding scale pricing of this summit is to provide creative resources for all self-identified womxn of color and we are asking our allies and co-conspirators to pay what they can afford and what feels right.
The more that you are able to pay allows us to continue this work of uplifting and highlighting BIWOC. We can then continue to create events, workshops, and foster this community.
If you own a home, have inherited money or have access to family money, consider paying more at the White Co-Conspirator price point.
