In an era of constant change — from shifts in federal leadership and legislative priorities to evolving funding strategies and growing polarization in the public sphere — arts grantmakers face a unique moment of reflection and action. How can we learn from the culture wars of the past to navigate today’s challenges and reimagine the future of arts policy and funding?
Join Liz Deichmann, PhD (Research and Evaluation Consultant) and Vanessa Cooksey (Regional Arts Commission) Tuesday, February 25 at 2pm EST/11am PST for an insightful discussion on new research at the intersection of arts and public policy, exploring the intense debates over government support for the arts during the 1990s. This pivotal period reshaped arts funding and public policy in America, offering critical lessons for our current context.
This program was developed and is presented in partnership with Mallory Ruhsana Nezam (Justice + Joy).
