2022 GIA Preconference: Investors in Culture Recap

Article
Written By Grantmakers in the Arts GIA

During Investors in Culture: Impact Investing, BIPOC-Owned Business & Solidarity Economies we were joined by graphic recorder Sara Yukimoto-Saltman. 

In Grantmakers in the Arts’ vision for the future, our field has grown to become investors in culture – broadening the means and tools of support (from just grants to private investments), and who receives support (from organizations to artists, small businesses, and members of solidarity economies).

In this preconference, we learned about how impact investments can be an instrument for economic, racial, and intersectional justice while benefiting creative economies and solidarity economies.

The preconference combined presentations, discussions, and Boston Impact Initiative’s Integrated Capital Card Deck, which uses a game to help funders and fund managers learn how to deploy integrated capital to close the racial wealth divide.
