The Cultural Development Firm GANGGANG has been around for less than two years, but it has already made a big impact on Indianapolis’ community and arts scene. Founders Alan Bacon and Mali Jeffers each have many years of leadership experience here in Indianapolis, and they joined forces in 2020 to create opportunities for Indianapolis artists of color. They partnered with the Arts Council and others to create the SWISH festival, which curated over 200 works of public art and performance in conjunction with the 2020 Men’s NCAA Basketball Tournament. They hosted BUTTER, a visual art festival at the Historic Stutz Building in 2021. And these are just two examples of a much larger portfolio created by Alan and Mali to create opportunities for artists and to tell the Indianapolis story to audiences locally and nationally. Hope you enjoy this conversation with Alan and Mali to hear more about GANGGANG’s vision for Indianapolis.
