Arts Management in Five Minutes

October 27, 2014 by Andrew Taylor

The American University’s Arts Management Program celebrated our 40th anniversary this week, with a grand bash of alumni, students, faculty, and friends. For the occasion, I was challenged to condense the entire Survey of Arts Management course I teach over 15 weeks into a five-minute version (okay, they asked for four minutes, but I couldn’t manage it).

Here is the result, in YouTube splendor. Enjoy, or revile, or respond, or all. You’re welcome.
