Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

We’re building an inclusive and welcoming environment at Mia, where everyone feels a sense of belonging. Our diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts strive to reflect the rich diversity of our community in everything we do—ensuring that art remains a powerful force for connection, inspiration, and transformation.

How We Advance DEI

Fostering a Welcoming Workplace

We’re building an inclusive and thriving workplace for Mia’s staff through initiatives promoting engagement, well-being, and collaboration.

Creating Opportunities

We provide meaningful experiences for students and professionals through internships and fellowships, opening pathways to museum careers and cultivating future talent.

Connecting with Our Community

Collaboration is key to advancing equity. Working hand in hand with community partners, we create programs that reflect our shared goals and celebrate the vibrant contributions of our diverse audiences. From exhibitions to events, our initiatives are shaped by authentic engagement and a commitment to inclusivity.
