After NAMPC

After having returned from three great days at NAMPC in Charlotte with friends from Syracuse we are chock full of inspired ideas. I encourage everyone to watch the keynote delivered by Nina Simon on opening up museums. Or, watch her TedX video which delivers the same punch.  Also take a look at what the Denver Center for the Performing Arts is doing with Off Center@The Jones. Innovation at work.

 

 

Opera Memphis Focus Group

I have been playing with a new interactive way to engage focus group participating using old school arts and crafts. Great way to get to heart of messaging that resonates with prospective customers!

Surale Phillips ASSISTS IN RESEARCH FOR THE ACTA, FFC, & THE NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR THE TRADITIONAL ARTS

Effects of the economic recession on the Folk & Traditional Arts- In February 2009, an ad hoc volunteer task force, spearheaded by the Alliance for California Traditional Arts (ACTA), the Fund for Folk Culture (FFC), and the National Council for the Traditional Arts, was formed to develop a survey for the folk and traditional arts field about the impact of the recession. Staff from the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, the Washington State Commission on the Arts Folk & Traditional Arts Program, the Western Folklife Center and independent folklorist Pat Jasper offered additional input as the survey developed.
