Animating Democracy Blog Salon starts next week!
Making the case for the arts is a constant challenge in The New Normal. While the intrinsic and economic benefits of arts and culture are important, there is great opportunity to show policy-makers and community leaders about the potency of the arts as a catalyst for civic and social change.
Check out the Animating Democracy blog salon (April 30-May 4) on ARTSblog http://blog.artsusa.org/category/animating-democracy-2/ for perspectives from expert practitioners and innovative thinkers as they attempt to answer the question: (how) can we validate the benefit of the arts and culture in terms of social impact?
