“Lights Up: Sparking Conversations on Excellence”

Join Edward Clapp of 20under40 for an interactive 60 minute workshop redefining
traditional concepts of mentorship. We’re all familiar with the ordinary structure
of a veteran leader mentoring a junior colleague. But what about mentoring up?
Or mentoring sideways in networks with your peers? Explore what you have to
learn and what you have to teach while envisioning new methods for strengthening
leadership in arts organizations.

Admission to the After Hours program ($10 advance/$15 at the door) includes this

year’s “Artist Inspiration” at 5:15 with playwright Chinaka Hodge, Brad Erickson,

Executive Director of Theatre Bay Area giving his annual remarks on the state of
the theatre community (5:30) and a reception with all conference attendees

HAPPENING NOW! April 5-9

ARTSblog : New Strategies to Support Next Generation Leadership

Are you an Emerging Arts Leader?  A Funder?  An Emerging Leader
Network wondering how you will sustain or grow your network?  Maybe you’re an Executive Director concerned about the leadership development of the next generation?

Then you’ll want to tune into ARTSblog April 5-9.

As arts administrators, we have all read reports and been involved in conversations about an impending generational shift.  Questions often arise about the readiness of emerging arts leaders to take over for current executive leaders, as we discuss “leadership gaps” and the lack of affordable professional development available.

To respond to this conversation, Americans for the Arts and the Emerging Leaders Council will host a national dialogue on New Strategies to Support Next Generation Leadership on ARTSblog.  The idea for this blog salon was developed out of a recent partnership between the Irvine and Hewlett Foundations to support Emerging Arts Leaders in California (See more about the Irvine/Hewlett partnership here).

This dialogue will leverage the voices of funders, Emerging Leader Network representatives, and leadership development advocates to discuss what is needed to sustain leadership growth, the skill sets that emerging leaders need to develop, and how funders are addressing the generational shift.
