What does it take for a Black arts organization to thrive and be sustainable in Boston?

Two local organizations are betting that a short-term partnership is part of that equation. The Front Porch Arts Collective, a Black theater company dedicated to advancing racial equity through the arts, is teaming up with The Huntington Theatre Company in a 3-year residency.

We discuss with Maurice Emmanuel Parent, the co-producing artistic director at the Front Porch Arts Collective, and by Michael Maso, the managing director at The Huntington Theatre Company.

This segment aired on August 24, 2021.
