Art as a Catalyst for Change

The Mint Museum believes art can (and should) be a catalyst for critical community conversations—and ultimately, change. As an institution, we’re committed to confronting persistent issues to build a foundation for progress. And for many of our staff, from those on senior leadership to part-time employees, this process started with self-education.

We are committed to looking both internally at changes we can make as an institution and externally to community conversations and efforts that we can be a part of.

Progress Support

North Carolina Black Artists for Liberation Progress Report

Shortly after George Floyd’s death, Mint President and CEO Todd A. Herman, PhD, wrote a statement that focused on fighting racial injustice and the role museums and artists can play in helping support dialogue. Herman later released a second statement that addressed how the Mint’s own past hasn’t lived up to the ideals we aspire to today — and what we’re doing to actively combat inequities in Charlotte and in the art world more broadly.
