Earlier this month, the Detroit Institute of Arts was "saved" by a voter-approved property tax (called a "millage") in its three surrounding counties.

Today on Beth Kanter's oft-fascinating blog, there's a discussion on social media and arts organizations. The results are sometimes a little embarrassing, as they seem to assume that twenty-somethings don't know anything about the arts or even particularly like them. This is a topic that's near to my heart.

Sharing stories of how others are affected by your school, your outreach and your educational experience will build credibility and encourage empathy. Use the right language.

But a little bit of education about fundraising basics can demystify the process and even get board members excited about pitching in. Not only does this fact-finding help the organization stay on top of current trends, but it also “seasons up” the board members to understand the practice, and art, of fundraising.

"The arts are future-making." I wrote this down when Deborah Cullinan said it at a meeting of arts leaders about a year ago. We were discussing the potential for cultural organizations to have significant impact across communities: on planning, health, education, and quality of life. The arts ARE future-making.

New laws and policies will help, but any movement toward greater cultural and racial understanding and communication must be supported by our country’s cultural and educational infrastructure. Museums are a part of this educational and cultural network. Schools and other arts organizations are rising to the challenge.
