SphinxCon - Solutions!

Why should you attend SphinxCon?
Diversify your community...
As a leader, how do you ensure that our field reflects the rich diversity inherent in our communities? Music, theater, dance, academia all struggle with understanding and promoting diversity. Join SphinxCon and hear inspirational leaders from the world of business, academia and the arts share their strategies and visions! Transform the arts... Less than 1% of repertoire presented by American orchestras today is that by composers of color. Blacks and Latinos comprise less than 5% in our orchestras. Our live audiences are dwindling and our art form is at a risk of becoming extinct. Come hear leaders from the orchestral world share their best practices and challenges. Get inspired, build connections: make a difference! Challenge yourself... It is easy to become consumed with our immediate goals, budgets and deadlines. Does the everyday routine leave you devoid of opportunities to innovate? At SphinxCon, your experience will force you to question, ponder and importantly, to challenge and interrogate your reality! Network with leaders... The Sphinx Organization created SphinxCon to convene a critical mass of performing arts leaders and practitioners on the topic of diversity and create a space for discussion and sharing. Our leaders will present a broad view of how diversity of happening in all disciplines. Come share, inspire, and promote your ideas! Initiate a change... After you leave SphinxCon, don’t look for outside sources to make change happen. Be a pioneer in your field, your community. Take action and transform the lives of people around you! |
