Another new crop for you all this weekend. 24 Usable Hours I’m so proud of my former Yale School of Management classmate Devon Smith for putting together this completely kickass arts & social media blog that you should all be reading. (Even the title is amazing!) I sometimes suspect Devon is simply adapting material she’sRead More
Some food for thought
Presented without comment: Outrageous Fortune paints a none-too-bright picture of the environment for new restaurants in America. Of principal concern are the economic challenges faced by restauranteurs and the lack of opportunity for making one’s living through cooking; the gap in support for mid-career chefs; the inauthentic professional relationship between restaurant owners and their landlords;Read More
Changes
I’m pleased to announce that I’ve been hired as the next Research Director for Fractured Atlas, a national arts service organization based in New York. It’s a full-time job, and my primary responsibility for 2010 will be implementing a prototype version of the Bay Area Cultural Asset Map (BACAM). (Longtime readers may remember BACAM fromRead More
New Blogs!
My, oh my, has it really been two and a half months since the last New Blogs roundup? That’s not good, especially since the onslaught of interesting new content has not let up one bit. With apologies to those who got left out this time, here are some of my newest reads: Art & SeekRead More
I get letters
I guess one of the privileges that comes along with the subscriber count passing 500 is that people send me press releases now. I’ve gotten a whole bunch of them in the past couple of weeks, and they all seem pretty relevant, so I’ll do my journalistic duty and pass them along. (Note: some ofRead More
The Top 10 (U.S.) Arts Policy Stories of 2009
OK, so I know I’m a little late to the party with the year/decade-in-review lists, but since no one other than me apparently cares enough about arts policy to make a top 10 list about it, I’m happy to be the doofus who takes the plunge. 2009 featured no shortage of tumultuous and game-changing eventsRead More
Snooze button

In which my moniker is capitaliz’d
I’m happy to report that I’ve been elected to the Americans for the Arts Emerging Leader Council, a national volunteer advisory committee, for a term beginning next month and ending in 2012. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know Americans for the Arts and everybody associated with the Emerging Leader Program in the past year, andRead More
New Blogs!
I’m always amused when people figure out they’ve been mentioned in New Blogs! and take the time to respond. To be honest, I didn’t really think that Createquity would ever have enough readers for anyone to care, but as the subscriber count over there on the right slowly inches toward 500 (thanks for rescuing myRead More
State Arts Funding: late 2009 wrap-up
Back in August, I posted a round-up of the struggles that various state arts councils were going through this year. The upshot is that a large number of agencies have experienced shocking declines in their state appropriations, in some cases totaling 50% or more of the previous year’s budget.
