"No doubt about it – these are tough times for the arts. You’ve squeezed the expense lines dry; revenues simply have to increase; where the heck can we find more audience members? Rethinking your organization’s strategy can provide invigorating board and management discussions as well as a fresh perspective on what is working and what isn’t with your business ..."

"This blog from the Chronicle of Philanthropy really resonated with me; we even sent it to our Finance Committee and to a few funders. No matter if you own or rent your stage/facility, it is a critical driver in your organization's strategy.
