WEBINARS OF THE MONTH WEBINARS OF THE MONTH
WEBINAR: THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 11:00 A.M., PST
Performing Arts Facilities and the Culture Wars: Life on the Front Lines
Performing arts facilities are being drawn into the culture wars as American society becomes increasingly politicized and polarized. Facility managers are having to deal with a range of difficult challenges, including open-carry laws, anti-vaxxers, artists sharing political views from the stage, first amendment rights and the basic question of whether arts facilities should be neutral sites welcoming all in the community or activist organizations pursuing justice and other progressive viewpoints for their communities.
Please join us for a lively panel discussion with facility managers and other experts as we dig into these questions and hear from the men and women having to navigate these difficult challenges on a daily basis.
Everyone knows that it takes time to build donor relationships, but what does that mean in practice? In this interactive webinar, we will unlock the keys to making a long-game fundraising approach a viable option for any arts organization. From building board fundraising capacity to priming the annual fund pump, we will discuss ways to get support dollars in the door today and ensure that they are still coming in the door tomorrow! This session will include critical long-term strategies for individual, corporate, and institutional funders.

TESTIMONIALSTESTIMONIALS
Elizabeth Bracey
"I am writing to let you know how grateful we are for the work you have put into the New Ways Forward program of webinars and roundtables. We have benefited from these programs so much, learning new approaches and ideas as well as checking in to make sure we are on the right track.
We have attended many of the webinars and participated in a few roundtables. Each one is professionally presented and I am taking away something practical and useful from each one that I attend. They have been energizing for me and for my staff and we are finding ways to apply much of the content immediately. Sometimes we are simply getting confirmation that we are doing the right things as we navigate this new “normal” in the Arts world.
I have also participated in a one-on-one with an Arts Ally, choosing to have a social media audit. The feedback was very helpful and personal to us and we got tools to use right away to make improvements. The feedback was empowering and encouraging – just what we need right now.
Thanks for all you do and keep it up! It IS making a difference!"

The Wallace Foundation seeks to improve education and enrichment for disadvantaged children and foster the vitality of arts for everyone. The foundation has an unusual approach: funding efforts to test innovative ideas for solving important public problems, conducting research to find out what works and what doesn’t and to fill key knowledge gaps – and then communicating the results to help others. Wallace, which works nationally, has five major initiatives under way:
School leadership: Strengthening education leadership to improve student achievement.
Afterschool: Helping selected cities make good afterschool programs available to many more children.
Building audiences for the arts: Enabling arts organizations to bring the arts to a broader and more diverse group of people.
Arts education: Expanding arts learning opportunities for children and teens.
Summer and expanded learning: Better understanding the impact of high-quality summer learning programs on disadvantaged children, and enriching and expanding the school day in ways that benefit students.
Fifth panel in Wallace’s arts conversation series examines what leaders of arts organizations with deep roots in communities of color see as the keys to their success, as well as what they have learned while navigating crises, including COVID-19.
Fourth panel in Wallace’s Arts Conversation Series examines ways in which cultural organizations can adapt to be more responsive to diverse audiences’ needs.
Part of Wallace’s arts conversation series, this panel examines how organizations can approach scenario planning in light of COVID-19, the reckoning with racial justice and other pressing factors.
Second panel in Wallace's arts conversation series examines how organizations can maintain relevance and resiliance through COVID-19, economic pressures and the national reckoning with racial justice.
Panelists in the first installment of Wallace's arts conversation series examine how COVID-19 and urgent conversations about racial justice are transforming the arts.
