I'm in Philadelphia through Sunday for two conferences back-to-back: First up is a session for the annual arts-participation grantee convening of The Wallace Foundation, where I'm co-presenting on the strategy of social media with Museum 2.0 blogger Nina Simon.

The main event (at least for me, since I'm president) is the annual conference of the Association of Arts Administration Educators, with my international peers in degree-granting programs in arts and cultural management. Our conference theme this year is ''Inquiring Minds: Blending research and practice in our programs and our field.''

Great folks are attending both events. Should be an engaging several days. Reports to come.
