Designing, Developing, & Testing Arts-Based Interventions
Given their capacity to communicate human experience, educate, provoke critical reflection, evoke empathy and facilitate intercultural dialogue, the arts are now being utilized as a primary strategy for advancing the goals of health and social services. In the field of prevention, interventions are designed to target risk factors leading to health and social problems. Arts organizations have an opportunity to utilize the arts to reduce health and social problems in communities because of what arts managers produce (the arts) and have access to (artists). However, evidence of effective arts-based methods, and formal training in intervention design and development has not been widely offered. In this pre-conference workshop, arts managers will learn how to design a program logic model, develop an assessment plan, and test an arts-based intervention in a community. Additionally, participants will collectively consider what a department of arts-based intervention might look like in an arts organization.

Theory, Practice, and the Practicality of Theory
Having risen out of the practice of arts management, our academic discipline is in the early stages of establishing a comprehensive body of theory, and thus, there is high demand for original scholarship in our field. This session will aim to provide guidance and examples that enable faculty to recognize connections between theory and the practice of arts management and to make the implicit more explicit.

The AI Era and Evolving Arts Management Accounting Practice and Instruction
Accounting is experiencing a seismic shift, as artificial intelligence-based software takes over repetitive tasks including transactional processing and audit testing. A quick internet scan will turn up hundreds of current articles admonishing accountants and bookkeepers to modernize their practices or be left behind. The collateral, of course, is the profound advantage to enterprises, including those in arts and culture, of embracing this revolution to re-strategize their deployment of scarce administrative resources


To what extent are Canadian arts organizations taking advantage of these innovations by adopting AI-based apps? How can college and university programs keep pace, preparing students to provide effective leadership in a rapidly evolving tech environment, and to instigate and manage transformative change in
workplace financial management practices?


Combining its specialized accounting practice with its depth of teaching expertise, the Young Associates team is uniquely positioned both to address these research questions and to develop and implement best practices.

Assessing your work today to set a path for thriving tomorrow
Artists Thrive is a growing initiative offering activities, practices, language, visions and values of what it means to succeed and thrive as an artist – and what it means to have a thriving arts sector and, eventually, thriving communities.  Artists Thrive is like a navigational system that helps us see where we are in our work, where we want to go, what is important to measure, and how we can improve in ways that benefit everyone involved.

The tools are meant to be customized, adapted, and applied to many situations to support your work and can be used again and again as a reference point for measuring how you, your department, or community collaboration is advancing toward your goals over time. This session will overview the website and provide activities and tools to take back to your campus to start your own local conversations around supporting artists.

"...By Any Other Name..."
As a field, we use combinations of terms to describe  programs to potential students and to distinguish them from similar offerings. There is usually a modifier: arts, cultural or some discipline-specific term. Then there’s a noun that points to career  expectations: management… administration… entrepreneurship… enterprise… leadership… A recent survey explored the extent to which differences in what we call our programs reflect distinctions in the curricula we offer our students. The panel will help us think about the meaning of these words and, by extension, what exactly we are preparing our students to do. Then the survey results will inform a general discussion in which all are welcome to participate.

The Revolution is Inclusion: Trends in Arts, Education, Accessibility, and Disability
One in five Americans has a disability. There is a strong probability you know someone with a disability and have learners with disabilities in your classes and programs. How can our attitudes, practices, and administration reduce real (and perceived) barriers to participation? Given the spectrum of disability, how can we implement more universal design strategies to ensure people can access, understand, and make (personal) meaning from the information we are conveying and experiences we are creating? This session encourages you to change the way you think about and engage people with disabilities while giving you tools to advance a revolution for disability inclusion.

Advancing Pedagogy with Open Source Technology: An Interactive Workshop Demonstrating the Use of Google and Other Open Source Systems to Create and Apply Community-Sourced Data and Mapping Tools
Today’s arts leaders must look at our world from multiple perspectives and scales. To transform our students into successful arts managers, arts administration educators can provide them with contemporary tools to manage their practice. Understanding the geography of cultural communities and how they relate to demographic, civic and urban development data is an essential tool for our students to engage with the larger issues facing arts administrators today. At the core, through  presentation, discussion and interactive workshop, we desire to empower educators, students and arts leaders to utilize these tools to further their organizational missions; and to deepen their practice in understanding the current landscape of our field.

Walking the Talk: One Program’s Journey Towards Equity and Inclusion
Over a period of five years, our program developed a significant effort towards promoting equity and inclusion in arts management education writ small (within the program) and arts management practice writ large (in the field). Our measures included significant changes to admissions and internship requirements, faculty hiring, classroom practice, curriculum design, fellowship development, faculty training, and support structures in the classroom, campus and employment. The work required re-education of campus administrators and prospective employers, confrontation of our own biases and weaknesses, and a reformulation of the relationship with our students. In this paper I describe our efforts, what we learned, what we are wrestling with, what we got right, and what we got wrong. The paper includes recommendations for other programs interested in taking an equitable and inclusive approach to arts management education and practice.

Women in Entertainment: Outsider Influence, Career Strategies, and the Power of Narrative
No examination of Nashville’s music identity is complete without discussion of the significance of Music Row (“the Row”), a presence largely responsible for shaping that identity. Located in a midtown Nashville neighborhood, the Row is a music business center comprised of a number of recording studios, major record and publishing companies, performance rights organizations (SESAC, BMI, ASCAP) and offices of the American Federation of Musicians -- all physically located within the same vicinity. The role of women on the Row is an important part of the story of the Nashville music industry. “Therefore, this paper explores that story for two groups of women: (a) women in music business (non-artistic) roles and (b) women of color on and off the Row. Specifically, the paper examines the impact of outsider influence, career strategies, and narrative on those populations.

ENCATC/AAAE Internationational Panel
Internationalism in higher education is almost taken for granted across the sector today though Arts Administration was one of those disciplines that attracted international attention since the early stages of its development.  The field expanded over the years at institutional and curriculum level worldwide and is now a global market in its own right – in terms of demand and of provision, with degrees offered in many countries worldwide. This AAAE-ENCATC session brings together a panel of US and international fellow academics to discuss to what extent and in what ways Arts Administration as a field of study has been affected by internationalism and (more recently) globalisation.  The curriculum, learning and teaching, interdisciplinarity, employability are just some ‘usual suspect’ themes that are likely to come up in the PechaKucha style presentations and conversation with the audience so we can all share ideas and learn from each other’s experience/s.  Do join us to debate internationalism and globalisation in Arts Administration education and their impact on the ‘direction of travel‘ of the field.’

The Impacts of Investing in Creativity: Longitudinal Outcomes of Artist Professional Development for Individual Artists and Their Community
The Culture Wars of the mid 1990s ultimately resulted in significant funding reductions for American artists.  The ensuing crisis for artists inspired the Ford Foundation to commission the Urban Institute to study the environment of support mechanisms for artists. Culminating three years of research, the Institute published its report Investing in Creativity in 2003. Building on this research a coalition of arts and culture funders launched Leveraging Investments in Creativity (LINC), a ten-year philanthropic experiment to create change in the American support system for artists. In 2008, as a part of a partnership funded through the LINC initiative, Artist INC was intentionally designed to address the Investing in Creativity report for artists residing in Kansas City.  From its inception, Artist INC was research-based and data driven. The survey instruments utilized acquired a significant amount of information on artist tools and skills, financial and legal practices, and attitudes. The resulting database includes one of the most detailed longitudinal data sets of practicing artist conditions post-professional development intervention in the United States. Utilizing this database, this session will explore the transitions of individual artists and their community across a five-year trajectory and propose directions for future pedagogical development based on the analysis.

Arts Managers on the Front Line: Addressing Emergency Preparedness in Arts Administration Curriculum
An argument is made that emergency management education specific to arts administrators—with a focus on the benefits and methods of preparedness—is a key step in addressing the issue of motivation and prioritization in emergency planning in the field. Two key learning objectives should be integrated into arts administration curriculum: the ability to create cross-sector community networks for increased resiliency and the ability to identify, and prepare for, modern threats relevant to places of culture. The paper also calls for the academic discipline to leverage practical field-level experiences with research opportunities to further explore what systems, and sub-systems, influence arts organizations’ vulnerabilities to emergency events.

Teaching Arts Administration with The Case Method
Long ago are the days of lecturing or teaching to the text, giving a test, and leaving for a break. Today, engaged students want to apply their readings and lectures in a pragmatic manner and they want to connect the theory with practice. The case method of teaching is not new but is used less in some universities or programs. This panel will engage in a conversation about their use of the case method using published case studies, their approach to teaching with case studies, and conclude with the process of writing new case studies.

This session explores the challenges and lessons learned when creating a new masters’ degree program in Arts Administration. With the aim of reimagining the educational experience of graduate students, the College of Fine Arts at Ohio University advanced an innovative, college-wide structure for the new graduate program: students complete the Foundational Certificate in Arts Administration, choose a Stackable Certificate that specifically aligns with their arts career interests (including the disciplines of Dance, Music, Theater, Art & Design, Museum Studies, and Film), and complete a required professional internship to earn a Master of Arts Administration. This session will delve into considerations of resources, curriculum, interdisciplinary partnerships, innovation and entrepreneurship, and potential contributions to the future of arts administration education.
