YES, AND! WHY EVALUATION IS ESSENTIAL FOR GOOD STORYTELLING – March 21, 3:00pm EST

In this high-energy webinar, Sheri Chaney Jones will share how stories and evaluation results lead to increase revenues, stronger relationships with funders, more engaged volunteers, and more meaningful impact. Inspiring research from Impact & Excellence will be shared around how arts organizations who establish specific measurement best practices are more successful. Participants will learn that this is fun, can be accomplished with any size organization, and will lead to positive results. Practical strategies that participants can start implemented immediately will be shared.

Also coming up is a webinar to guide you through NCAR’s Arts Vibrancy Index and what it means for your community.

 

HOW VIBRANT IS YOUR ARTS COMMUNITY? – April 10, 3:30pm EST

Healthy communities have healthy arts communities. Hear from Zannie Voss and learn about NCAR's Arts Vibrancy Index which ranks more than 900 communities across the country, examining the level of supply, demand, and government support for the arts in each city. Find out where your community falls on the related Heat Map, with rank scores on all measures for every U.S. county. Understand what makes a city vibrant in the arts and the different elements that come into play to foster that vibrancy. Discuss how communities can boost vibrancy and why it matters to their overall health.
