"Our mission remains steadfast: to cultivate a more civic-minded community," said a spokesperson for Civilized Fest. "We believe that through music, art, and meaningful dialogue, we can inspire individuals to engage with their communities and take action."

Artivist ShySpeaks emphasizes the importance of this mission, stating, "As a Dallas born and bred artist by way of Oak Cliff, I feel a profound responsibility to use my platform to inspire change. Partnering with Dallas Weekly for their Civics 101 initiative is crucial because it allows us to educate attendees about the significance of voter registration and civic engagement. Together, we can create a powerful dialogue that empowers our community."

In collaboration with ShySpeaks and Company, The Millennial Maven Creative Foundation—a newly established nonprofit—will provide underserved youth with the opportunity to work at the festival. This initiative aims to expose them to various career paths within creative fields and industries. Founder and Executive Director Bridgette Jones expressed her enthusiasm, stating, "Empowering our youth with real-world experiences is crucial for their future success. Partnering with Civilized Fest allows us to provide valuable opportunities and inspire the next generation of creative leaders."

Additionally, Urban Specialists will curate and host a panel discussion focused on Racial & Economic Equity, providing attendees with insights and strategies for fostering equality in our communities. This important conversation aligns perfectly with the festival's mission of promoting civic engagement and social justice.
