As the National Cultural Center, the Kennedy Center has a unique and urgent responsibility to turn symbolic gestures into tangible systems. On June 2, 2020 we made a statement to hold this institution accountable and ensure that the Center is always home for critical conversation about race and discrimination. Led by the Kennedy Center’s Social Impact team, under the leadership of Vice President and Artistic Director of Social Impact Marc Bamuthi Joseph, the arts are leveraged for non-arts outcomes. We are building on work that has already begun at the Center and will prioritize, pursue, and weave throughout the institution. These are not intended to be immediate solutions, but rather iterative strategies that will take three to five-year to implement as the Center works, systemically, to foster anti-racism within the organization and across the performing arts. We will be: -Investing more than a million dollars annually in the local creative economy. -Showcasing artists from all 50 states through Arts Across America. -Activating the REACH with a lens on public health. -Connecting black art to anti-racist organizing through our #BlackCultureMatters initiative. -Commissioning young composers of color in the classical music realm through our Cartography Project. -Focusing on cultural leadership and community action. The Kennedy Center is deeply focused on better evaluating itself as an organization as well as its progress as an anti-racist institution and is developing tools to measure the efficacy of our processes from a relational standpoint, creating institutional accountability in how we engage the community and implement our philosophies and learnings. Additionally, the Center is exploring how alternative language, aesthetics, and modalities could play a key role in communicating more directly and successfully with newer constituency groups and under-represented communities. We’re working to produce symbols that inspire while cultivating systems that sustain an equitable future.

Machine learning accelerates discovery, crowd-funding allows people to pursue their passions easier than ever before, and social media gives us the opportunity for open idea sharing and generation. He is a futurist, an inventor, with several patents to his name. Darrick is an artist, entrepreneur, and innovator. He believes strongly in corporate social responsibility, a new age of democratic empowerment via technology, and developing products that positively impact the world. For the past few years, Darrick has been incorporating this same creativity into the tech industry, working particularly in Artificial Intelligence, Augmented/Virtual Reality and blockchain applications. Darrick is on a mission to meet and connect with changemakers and visionaries, to support them on their path, and help catalyze fruitful connections in his network.
