-----ABOUT IN FULL COLOR-----
In Full Color is an award-winning organization that empowers women of color through education and the arts. We are leading a storytelling revolution that empowers woman-identified creators from marginalized ethnic groups to achieve the highest levels of Authentic Representation in theater, visual art, comedy, music, dance and other media. We also aim to entertain and educate audiences of all colors and genders about the need for diversity in the media, racial issues and cultural exchange.

In Full Color is also the name of our annual theatrical show, founded in 2015 in Jersey City, N.J., which features poems, monologues and stories by women of color from around the country, shared in their authentic voice.

We were previously known as Thinking In Full Color. IFC is a sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts service organization.
