BIPOC Arts was developed in July 2020 out of a desire to have a collective place that features and celebrates BIPOC individuals in opera. Created by Alejandra Valarino Boyer, BIPOC Arts is a one-click response to "I just don't know any good BIPOC [opera professional] to hire".BIPOC Arts celebrates Black, Indigenous, and POC individuals in opera. We provide a community for BIPOC opera professionals and serve as a resource for companies, collaborators, and recruiters to engage with a wide range of BIPOC talent in the field.
