What does the future hold for BIPOC, disabled, and LGBTQ+ artists in a rapidly shifting cultural and economic landscape?

In this powerful annual conversation, Colony Little (arts writer + cultural worker) and Evonne Gallardo (arts consultant + nonprofit leader) return for their fourth update with Ritzy P to dive deep into:

The current state of the art world through the lens of community, collaboration, and resistance

How market dynamics are shifting—and who’s being left out or centered

The importance of joy, nostalgia, and coping mechanisms as forms of activism

Why quality in art and artistic expression still matters in movements

Cultural narratives, history, and support systems for marginalized artists

This episode is for anyone who believes in liberation through creativity, representation as resistance, and the power of art to reshape our futures.
