AMERICANS FOR THE ARTS
FREE CONFERENCE CALL - "MAKING THE MAJOR ASK"
February 23, 2015
at 3:00 PM
The nation's largest source of private sector funds is
not being tapped by most arts organizations - and there's a chance you may be
included in that group. Join Americans for the Arts and guests from Richmond,
Virginia for a free February 23 conference call to learn more about how you can
take better advantage of this untapped private sector resource.
Virginia Commonwealth University's (VCU) Center for Urban
and Regional Analysis (CURA) researched arts organizations in Richmond,
Virginia - one of the nation's top ten test markets - and found that most have
little ability or track record with soliciting major gifts from individual
persons. A simultaneous Richmond report documented the success of
a 12-month learning/mentoring/doing program - the Moose Management
Academy - that transforms the abilities of arts organizations to get major gifts.
During this call you'll learn research details, as well
as steps to help your own arts organizations get major gifts, from
four key leaders: VCU Center director John Accordino; Academy director John
Bryan (AFTA's 2012 Selena Roberts Ottum Awardee); Jeff Schreifels (senior
partner of Veritus Group); and Academy associate director Candace Mraz
(director of development for SPARC, a Richmond arts organization).
No registration is necessary; simply dial 605-475-4825
#255988 on February 23 at 3pm eastern.
