Description

This talk highlights the economic impact of the arts as a force in our society, and how to create improved organizations for the future. Arts and Entertainment make up slightly more than 4% of the United States Gross Product- that's over $870 billion dollars a year! You may think about the large salaries earned by top entertainer, but the non-performing artists, the people whose work impacts your entire arts experience, are the ones whose paychecks make up the bulk of the arts payroll. Management, hospitality, maintenance, and marketing are just a few of the areas where people who make the arts and entertainment you love play a crucial role in improving our arts organizations for the future.
