ArtsWatch operates as a daily outlet delivering news 24/7 and aims to increase capacity for immediate response to urgent arts news. A $90,000 Emerging Opportunities grant from the Fred W. Fields Fund of Oregon Community Foundation enables faster coverage. The organization has built deep expertise across disciplines, including nine regular music writers, and has evolved from active recruiting to attracting contributors. Recent additions created a seven-member reporting and editing team to manage breaking news and speed story turnaround. The organization prioritizes timely reporting while maintaining breadth and depth across arts coverage.
