The Artful Manager

Andrew Taylor on the business of arts & culture

Americans for the Arts panel

May 26, 2006 by Andrew Taylor

I’m pleased to be participating in the upcoming Americans for the Arts Convention in Milwaukee next week, and hope to see many of you there. I’m among a panel of folks, coordinated by Barry Hessenius, on the topic of ”change,” and what arts and cultural leaders might do about that ever-present and ever-increasing critter.

The panel will include me, Barry, Nancy Glaze, Cora Mirikitani, Bob Lynch, Anthony Radich and Cuong Hoang, and will run from 3:45 to 5:00 pm on Saturday, June 3. We’ll be building on an on-line collaborative conversation already started, but not near complete. If you’re attending the convention, come on by. Should be fun.
