"The more the world pushes us to isolate and divide, the greater the greater the urgency to deliver collective experiences." When we're alone, or with people who think like us, we're living in an echo chamber of our own biases. The moment that someone has an emotional response different from our own, our brains start firing in new ways. We’re enabled to build empathy and, in turn, a healthier society. Alex Sarian, President & CEO of Arts Commons, shares how he examined relevancy to reach parts of Calgary previously unmet by his venue. Investigating what culture means for these residents, Arts Commons launched an outdoor concert series to foster community, boost relevancy and increase arts access. This talk was presented live at TLCC Orlando 2023 as part of Tessitura’s Innovator Series.
