As we enter a new decade in what has still felt like a new and very chaotic century, how are the arts going to restructure their marketing, fundraising, and governance efforts to capture patrons who are changing exponentially?

Are you ready for the wave of change?  

Are you anticipating which new technologies, messages, and cultivation strategies will be the most effective for your unique situation? Have you set the most prudent course for maximizing short-term donor net income and long-term contributed income growth? Are you ready for younger board members who have different expectations and for older board members who are equally impatient because they see that things have been stagnant for a long time?  

If you realize that the old practices simply won't work any more, then this is the conference for you. Join like-minded professionals for an extraordinary weekend of learning, discussing, socializing, and relaxing. With a theme this timely and a line-up this strong, it might literally prove to be the conference where the future of the arts in North America for the next decade is determined.
