Land Back is a campaign that seeks to return political and economic control to Indigenous people in the United States and Canada over land that historically belonged to them prior to colonization. What does this movement hold for Utah’s Indigenous communities, and what similarities does Land Back have with the Reparations movement in Black communities which also aims to address historical inequality? Join the Black, Bold & Brilliant team as they celebrate Indigenous People’s Month with this thoughtful and restorative roundtable discussion.

Youth Art Workshop Celebrating Basquiat
In honor of Black History month we celebrate the historical figures, ancestors and legendary creators of our joined history.
Of the greats in art you cannot forget the iconic crowns of Jean Michel Basquait, the self portraits and the colors that charge your mind with wonder. In this family workshop we ask you to think who in your life needs to be reminded of their crown? All of us!
So in this workshop you will work as a family to create a scene of crowns for each family member.
Take your family portrait on site, print it out and create those images using the language of Basquait. Is your dad your superhero? Is your dog your favorite creature? How can you incorporate the artistic expressions of Basquait in your family portrait? Decide together who and what you want to honor and create.
When you’re all done look at how you’ve come together to create a piece expressing what unity and creativity can produce.

WHAT IS A WHITE PARTY?
White Parties are themed parties at which the standard clothing is all or almost all white and were started in the 1970’s as large dance events closely associated with LGBTQIA+ culture.
The SLC WHITE PARTY is the longest running WHITE PARTY in SLC and inclusive to all who wish to experience a magical night of art, music, performance, dance and joy. The SLC WHITE PARTY is welcoming to all regardless of race, gender, sexuality, or ability.
ATTIRE: A WHITE PARTY is a themed costume party with a special dress code that asks all guests attending to wear white outfits. You can wear colorful accents to a white party in the form of accessories. But generally speaking, except for accessories and accents, your outfit is encouraged to be head-to-toe white!
The SLC White Party is a fundraiser for the Utah Arts Alliance, a Utah 501(c)3 organization.
