We frame our work with a focus on racial equity and include within that scope, but not limited to, diverse gender identities, musical approaches and perspectives, religions, ages, (dis)abilities, cultures, backgrounds, sexual orientations, and broad definitions of being “American.”

We request information about your identity to help us know more about the artists we are reaching.

Below are a series of open fields and checkboxes.

Open fields are provided so you can share how you self-identify. We understand that this data can in no way fully reflect the richness of who you are. We are especially interested in how you relate to race, gender, geographic location (and rural/urban), class, education, physical/mental health, citizenship, native language, and cultural background. Please share as much as you are comfortable sharing with us.

Checkboxes are provided for race, ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, and stage of artistic life. This allows us to see how applicant cohorts relate to the demographic information from other organizations, funder requirements, and geographic areas.

Providing this information is optional.
