Training Leaders to Impact Communities
NALAC’s leadership program equips artists, administrators and cultural workers with tools to transform their personal creative practice, affect policy, and impact the communities they serve.
NALAC Leadership Programs
Building Strong Administrative, Artistic, and Social Practices
The Latinx arts and culture community has identified leadership development and mentorship as a high-level priority. Through its leadership program, NALAC builds leadership and professional skills among artists and those working in the arts and culture field.

Meet our Leadership Alums
Our leadership Alums come from all across the nation and Puerto Rico. To date, 751 artist and arts administrators have graduated from our intensive training programs rooted in the Latinx/é historical experiences.
Consider Participating
The NALAC Leadership Institute (NLI) is a week-long fellowship that brings non-profit arts administrators and cultural workers together from across the nation for intensive training in leadership and management capacity.
Leadership fellows are inter-generational leaders, practitioners, teachers, and social advocates in various stages of their careers. They represent different Latinidades, approaches, and experiences.
For more updates, announcements and opportunities, please subscribe to our newsletter.

ILI is a year-long intercultural leadership program for artists, culture bearers and other arts professionals. ILI is a collaborative program of Alternate ROOTS, First Peoples Fund, National Association of Latino Arts & Cultures (NALAC) and PA’I Foundation.
