Arts Reach National Arts Marketing Conference 2006

This conference is designed to help organizations focus their precious resources in the most effective ways to maximize the achievement of the organizations mission.

Arts Reach is the only how-to, results-oriented publication that describes successful revenue-generating strategies guaranteed to help all arts organizations. With support from several national and regional associations, this conference promises to be a watershed event. First, Arts Reach is collaborating with INTIX, The International Ticketing Association, to bring the best marketing and ticketing minds from around the world to share their knowledge.

Secondly, the leaders of National Arts Strategies, Russell Willis Taylor and Jim Rosenberg, will be drawing upon their extensive experience developing high-level national seminars as they lead two of the Plenary Sessions.

Thirdly, Arts Reach is working with national associations such as INTIX, American Association of Museums, American Symphony Orchestra League, Chorus America, Dance/USA, Opera America, National Alliance for Musical Theatre, The League of Historic American Theatres, and Theatre Communications Group, plus regional associations such as Western Arts Alliance, Association of
Midwest Museums, and Southeastern Museums Conference, to bring the members of these associations significant discounts to make it easy for them to attend.

Lastly, several corporate sponsors--some long-term and some new this year--are lending their financial support and expertise in numerous ways, all with the goal of advancing the field of arts management.
