Spreading the Word: Calls to Action for Every Art Enthusiast
Businesses: Be the Backstage Heroes
Local businesses and community spaces can serve as stages and avenues that reach a wide variety of people every day. When businesses promote local arts events, this draws audiences from around the area—people that otherwise would not have come to that area. By sponsoring (or co-sponsoring) events that showcase a wide variety of performing or static arts and by investing in buildings and open spaces that enable the presentation of the arts, businesses and other public institutions can become vital investors in the health of their community, and by extension, the health of their own organizations and institutions (1).
