Description/Analysis
IssueDetail
Issue Detail: The purpose of this item is to provide an opportunity for members of the Arts, Culture, and Creative Economy Commission (ACCEC) Race and Cultural Equity Ad Hoc Committee, established at the June 8, 2026 ACCEC meeting, to lead a discussion around goals, objectives, and outcomes for a six-month initiative to acknowledge progress made against the goals of the Creative Edge Plan (Creative Edge).
The Race and Cultural Equity Statement was adopted by ACCEC in June 2020, which arose from the work of the previous Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission and a special race and cultural equity task force which first convened in 2017.
During the June 8, 2026 ACCEC meeting regarding the Race and Cultural Equity Statement (File ID: 2026-01143), commissioners reasserted the three core areas of: outreach and engagement, equity and access, and accountability. The Race and Cultural Equity Ad Hoc Committee was then formed out of a desire to create a limited-duration task that would address the specific area of accountability, with the recognition that an opportunity exists to explore and highlight progress made towards supporting Creative Edge with respect to race and cultural equity.
The Race and Cultural Equity Ad Hoc Committee consists of Commissioners Jeff Eisenberg, Walker Hershey, Rosa Maria Orozco, Wellington Smith, and Dr. Steven L. Winlock.
