OYA Black Arts Coalition is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Black artists, creators and entrepreneurs within the entertainment sector. Over the last three years we piloted the OYA Emerging Filmmakers Program, which gave young Black creatives the experience and confidence they needed to succeed. With over 60 alumni, today, we are ready to expand our reach, by establishing a much needed, not-for-profit organization that is ready to lead on an industry-wide shift. OBAC is going to transform the film and entertainment sector, by ensuring that Black creatives thrive from behind the camera and beyond. We will do this through networking, mentorship and hands-on training, alongside providing safe space for experimentation. We know that film, television and digital media are booming sectors with goals of becoming a 5 billion industry in the near future, and now is a great moment to amplify the creative power of our Black communities.
