Take a closer look at the crowdfunding platforms that have created an entirely new generation of arts patrons in the last few years. You'll learn how to use these tools effectively and explore what today's audience expects from artists in terms of video, digital downloads, and access
I am not an expert at fundraising in the traditional sense. As a recovering choral conductor who became a recording engineer, I’ve never held a fundraising position for any arts nonprofit organization. I did, however, spend 10 years working for two symphonic choruses with budgets of over $1 million and administrative staffs of less than five people. Like many of us, I’ve gotten an on-the-job crash course in fundraising and patron cultivation.
