Culture at 3

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Culture at 3, stylized as Culture @ 3,[1] is a call with Cultural organizations in New York City that grew out of the city's shutdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2][3] It is believed to be the first time the arts and cultural organizations of all genres have come together to address issues facing the cultural community.[4][5]

The call is led by the CIG Chair Taryn Sacramone with Sade Lythcott, CEO of the National Black Theatre and Lucy Sexton, Executive Director of New Yorkers for Culture & Arts (NY4CA). Initially, a daily call brought together 500 participating organizations. However, as organizations reopened and their needs evolved, the call frequency was adjusted to better serve them.[6]
