Synopsis

Whether the art form is theater, dance, music, festival, or the visual arts and galleries, the arts manager is the liaison between the artists and their audience. Bringing together the insights of educators and practitioners, this groundbreaker links the fields of management and organizational management with the ongoing evolution in arts management education. It especially focuses on the new directions in arts management as education and practice merge. It uses cases studies as both a pedagogical tool and an integrating device. Separate sections cover Performing and Visual Arts Management, Arts Management Education and Careers, and Arts Management: Government, Nonprofits, and Evaluation. The book also includes a chapter on grants and raising money in the arts.

About this title

Review:

'... a  welcome  addition  to  the  literature  on  arts  management.  It provides information that has yet to be explored by combining the more “how to” applications that a manager should consider with a cursory review of policy-based considerations that confront the arts leader.' -- Cecelia Fitzgibbon, The Journal of Arts Management, Law, and Society
