Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

OCTOBER 25, 2011

This year’s Academy Award winning film – Inside Job – is one of the most powerful descriptions of what went wrong leading up to the financial collapse of 2008. Note From Beth: Yesterday, I attended a convening called “ Beyond Dynamic Adaptability ” for arts organizations about cultural participation in the arts.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2008

I spoke about social media and future leadership in the arts - and also did a workshop. I have a long history with the arts community in New York. The plenary and workshop took place in the black box theatre with a huge projection screen. I had the pleasure of sharing the podium with Susan Chun who spoke about the Steve project.

Note: the title of this post pays homage to Elaine Heumann Gurian's excellent and quite different 1981 essay of the same title.

Have Fun - Do Good

JANUARY 16, 2009

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out. I'm an artist and an institution builder. The kind of art I do is art that gets engaged into the public.

Have Fun - Do Good

APRIL 29, 2009

Then, I started going around the country teaching workshops around spiritual activism: why it's important to take your yoga off the mat and into the world, and the different ways that we can get involved. But every time I would leave a workshop, I would leave with this haunting feeling of, "Now what?"
