About the Sponsors
ELNYA is Emerging Leaders of New York Arts. We are a New York City-based networking and professional development group that explores new ideas, best practices and challenges in the field of arts management. Our membership includes an evolving group of arts administrators in our 20s and 30s who empower ourselves with hands-on leadership opportunities and programming that elevates our field. http://www.elnya.org

The World Policy Institute is an ideas incubator focused on emerging global challenges, thinkers, and solutions. The World Policy Institute understands that policymakers and opinion leaders need creative ways to catalyze innovation and engage wider coalitions in solving some of the world’s biggest challenges.  By working with artists focused on the same issues, the Arts-Policy Nexus seeks to build a new, collaborative model for social change.

Come celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month with ELNYA for a special May edition of Creative Conversations!

ELNYA and the Asian American Arts Alliance have joined forces for an action-packed discussion event, bridging ELNYA’s Creative Conversations and the Alliance’s Brainstorm! event to examine best practices, challenges, and needs when it comes to producing in the big bad city.

Discover how the THAI ARTISTS ALLIANCE developed and produced Mindfulness, an experimental dance piece inspired by the Buddhist term Sa-Ti. Dancers from the THAI ARTISTS ALLIANCE reflected an individual’s inner struggle towards clarity of mind in NYC through their performance Mindfulness. This project was featured in the Asian American Arts Alliance’s 2012 Locating the Sacred Festival.

Join us as the THAI ARTISTS ALLIANCE presents their pieces from the festival and takes us behind the scenes with thoughts on what inspired them to create this work, the process of developing it, and where it’s going next.

Afterwards, come mix and mingle with ELNYA/Alliance artists and arts administrators just down the street at 169 Bar!!!
