Over the past three years, the Detroit Institute of Art (DIA) has served as the museum poster child for the debate on the public value of the arts. Last year, the DIA was saved from financial crisis by voters in its three neighboring counties who elected to take on an additional property tax to support the museum.

Earlier this month, the Detroit Institute of Arts was "saved" by a voter-approved property tax (called a "millage") in its three surrounding counties. Residents in the three counties that pay the millage will receive special benefits : free admission to the museum and expanded educational programming. Vote with your money instead."

You run a regional museum. This is the plan that plunged the Berkshire Museum into hot water. In July, the Berkshire Museum released its $60,000,000 New Vision , along with a funding mechanism: selling 40 of its most valuable artworks.

Admittedly, many of these posts exist in a bubble of inter-referencing (which I am only exacerbating with this post): Clay Lord weighs in on the data about audience representation in Bay Area theater, and the ways that a majority culture can oppress its own value systems on others. You should go and tell us all about it.

I grew up just outside of Detroit Michigan, daughter of a police officer and nurse. I went to the University of Detroit-Mercy where I got a dual BA in English and Communications. During that time, I discovered this group of English majors who had started their own Internet Company. I learned a lot from San Jose Art Museum.

Andrea has been a leader in the museum technology field. I’ve always appreciated working with her on committees and spending time with her outside committees. The Detroit Institute of Arts has been a precious anchor where many of us have created memories that helped define who we are today.
