Women of Color in the Arts (WOCA) is dedicated to creating racial and cultural equity in the performing arts field, by promoting professional opportunities for arts administrators and providing a platform to give voice and visibility to women of color. By working to fortify leadership and reinforce a world where everyone has a seat at the table, WOCA aims to cultivate an inclusive field, one as varied in voice and perspective as the communities it serves. WOCA works diligently to move the conversation of racial and cultural equity forward with the intent of creating equitable systems for all to prosper inside and outside of the arts.
WOCA is a people-powered, members-driven, fiscally-sponsored service organization which works to advocate for and provide professional support to arts administrators. WOCA serves as a forum to share and provide unique opportunities for learning and development among peers and exists as an incubator for the exchange of diverse ideas and creative practices in the arts field.
