Quality arts programming is at the core of all arts and culture organizations, yet many arts mangers struggle with how to present a program, once they have developed an idea. In this course, you will learn how to develop an arts programming philosophy and plan programs that connect the arts with audiences. The course will examine culturally specific and controversial programming, explore exemplary programs, and review technical and logistical support requirements. The course will conclude with the development of a program plan for your own nonprofit or a case study organization of your choosing.
PreReq: HM&FNART 500 This is a 3 credit blended course open to Soph/Jr/Sr/Grad students. We meet once a week for lecture/discussion and all assignments and exams are in Moodle. Intro to Arts Management (HM&FNART 500) can be taken concurrently.
