CORY JAMES DUNN
Justice Through Art | Fueling Industry Leaders
I am an equity-driven, problem-solving producer who is incredibly passionate about the arts and their ability to spark empathy. I produce and curate theatre, stand-up, and music for live performance venues. I seek the untold stories for stage: the overlooked perspectives that can spark curiosity and self-reflection while also relishing in joy. In the non-profit arts space, I create fundamental systems to support operations for artistic and production staffs, putting humanity at the center of all practices. I support the next generation of artists and arts leaders, refreshing the industry with bold ideas about the future of the field.
And I want to work with you to build a brighter future.
