Dream Foundry Event For Creatives of Color

The Dream Foundry has announced The Anvil, an upcoming “unconference” for creatives of color and their allies:

The Anvil is a virtual one-day unconference for creatives of color, happening August 10 from noon-10 pm CDT. The unconference format does away with top-down programming. Instead, the event list is built by the attendees and to meet their wants and needs. In addition to attendee-led discussions and networking opportunities, The Anvil will feature keynote speeches and sessions for sharing work. All Anvil attendees will be able to participate in Crowdfunding to Build Independence, a workshop run by short film startup incubator Seed & Spark.

The event is part of Dream Foundry’s Con or Bust program, which “issues cash grants and other material support to fans and creatives of color to help connect them with SFFH genre events and resources.”

Registration is currently open for The Anvil. Dream Foundry is also seeking event sponsors. For more information, vising the Dream Foundry website.
