KAITLYN B. JONES, M.A.

Kaitlyn B. Jones is an interdisciplinary artist, scholar, curator and activist from the unceded territory of the Karankawa,

Coahuiltecan, and Sana peoples (Cypress, TX).

She believes that art is a conduit for healing, a seedbed for activism, and necessary fuel for the revolution against white supremacy. Her work facilitates conversations about intersectionality, social justice, and the complex Black-American experience.

Jones holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance from the University of Texas at Austin and a Master of Arts in Arts Leadership with a certificate in Museum and Gallery Management from the University of Houston.

As a dancer, she worked with many renowned choreographers including Ananya Chatterjea, Charles O. Anderson, Erica Gionfriddo, Andrea Beckham, Jennifer Freeman, Gesel Mason, and Rennie Harris.​

​

In 2020, Jones expanded her artistic practice to include multimedia and performance art. Her newfound practices led her to create This is not for you (2021) and One day, you will die (2021), two interactive installations curated by Aisha Tida Abbassi for A Time For Action, an interdisciplinary micro-festival hosted by the Blaffer Art Museum in Houston, Texas.​

​

Jones' dual passions for art and social justice fuel her advocacy for a world where accessibility is at the forefront of the arts sector. She actively engages in anti-racist practices and methodologies to create, curate and support artwork that is accessible to all communities regardless of race, age, gender, sexuality, ability or socio-economic status.
