Back by popular demand, join us for the second Arts Disaster and Crisis Preparedness Conference! ADCP is a national gathering focused on building readiness, sharing innovative research and practices, and strengthening the arts sector’s ability to respond to crises.

In response to survey feedback from 2024, we’ve designed this year’s conference to feature:

• Pre-conference tracks

• Keynote speakers from across the arts, emergency management, and philanthropy sectors

• Workshops, panels, and presentations on preparedness, response, and community healing

• More networking opportunities with arts leaders, funders, policymakers, and emergency management professionals
