What’s Next for Mildred’s Lane

At the beginning of this month we hosted our first Corvus Summit, to collectively re-assemble the terms of operation for the future of our organization as we prepare to become an official 501(c)3 non-profit. Strategies for leadership, fundraising, programming, and collective were lovingly deliberated by a gathering of “crows” (some of our closest colleagues and creative allies who have been close at hand in our strategic planning over the past several years).

Mission Statement

A vital part of this process is putting our values and vision into words. This is our current mission statement in progress:

The Mildred Complex(ity) is an art and ecology non-profit organization advancing new methods for social, cultural, and educational entanglement. Our program nurtures interdisciplinary collaboration, ecological relations, and creative domesticity, co-evolving experimental ways of researching, knowing, and being.

Committees in Formation

The Corvus Summit has generated a number of committees (including: Mission & Programming, Legal & Accounting, Fundraising, Grant Research & Writing, Department of Interstitchiaries) which will continue the strategic planning into the fall and beyond.

Transformation is happening—emergence is in process.
