Founded in 2012, the Black Arts Consortium brings together students, faculty, artists, scholars, and community members to celebrate, advance, and reimagine Black creative practice.
Rooted at Northwestern University and connected far beyond its campuses, the Black Arts Consortium cultivates spaces where ideas are exchanged, collaborations are sparked, and artistic innovation thrives. From Evanston to Chicago and across the country, our network connects practitioners, academics, and culture bearers through meaningful dialogue and creative exchange.
Programming that sparks dialogue and creative exploration.
