Arts Entrepreneurship 

When we talk about “the arts” we often forget that they are more than creativity and blind luck – The arts involve using every possible best business practice to make a project or shared experience happen.  Artists are entrepreneurs who execute plans on razor thin margins and tight timelines and then share their work with a live audience who provides immediate feedback.  And they do this important work while balancing a dual bottom line – financial sustainability and mission-driven work.
