We do not serve just one discipline or demographic, but work for all of the people and organizations working in the arts as a business sector. This provides us a broad and unique opportunity to see and learn about what works, what doesn’t.

We also stay abreast of national trends and have developed strong national contacts through our work with national and regional arts organizations such at Americans for the Arts.
