Americans for the Arts and NonFiction Media presents “Taking Stock: Connecting the Dots”, a video chronicling the Puget Sound Region’s Emerging Arts Leaders’ dynamic series of Creative Conversations.
Ride along as young arts administrators grapple with the shifting landscape of arts funding, advocacy and space use models.
Thrill to the strains of peer networking, collaborative problem solving, and mutual edification!
This film shows what is possible when today’s leaders come together to invent the way forward–rather than waiting to have it shown to them.
