About

What We are About

Beyond Brown is a set of resources created and curated by the Brown Arts Institute to address the concerns expressed by graduating seniors surrounding the loss of institutional support in the forms of access to technology, professional development and community. We address these needs through the guides and other resources found on this website along with occasional workshops.

"Through my work with Brown Arts Initiative I have had the opportunity to review hundreds of creative proposals and applications. I hope to help make what can be an opaque process more transparent for emerging artists."

"I believe having a strong ecosystem of open-source tools and technology insures democratic access to resources and provides artists and creators with more freedom."

"As a practicing artist, I remember feeling unprepared for what that meant outside the walls of my undergrad institution. I want to share what I have learned not only as an artist, but as a staff member in higher education with those students"
