ArtsWatch Insider: We just keep growing! * Oregon ArtsWatch
"Next year marks ArtsWatch's 15th anniversary, and we've been laying the groundwork for a remarkable year of growth. I know! Everyone comments on how much we've grown. But get ready, because we have more in store! As we reflect on the many accomplishments since ArtsWatch was founded in 2011, we are excited to launch another chapter, establishing new programs that we hope will become perennial favorites. Look for more in-person engagement, valuable listing resources, and Upcoming Artists to Watch features."
"And that's just the public-facing side. Behind the scenes, we are thrilled to announce ArtsWatch is one of 20 news organizations in the country that has been selected for the next cohort in Lion Publishers' Sustainability 360 program, which offers free strategic coaching and financial and human resources consulting for one year, all thanks to generous support from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation."
"All of this growth will allow ArtsWatch to better serve and strengthen the entire arts ecosystem in the region. Other ways it will make a substantial impact: All brought to you by people in your community who are committed to providing you reliable, trusted information. Spur understanding and connection. Boost visibility. Drive audience engagement. Increase community vitality and pride. Empower people to make informed decisions. Provide critical analysis and validation that organizations use to amplify their work."
