I just read this cool post from Experience L.A. regarding Claremont Graduate University’s M.A. in Arts Management program. They will be in Pasadena tomorrow, December 9th, to discuss their program with those who are interested. The event is free, so if you’ve ever had an interest in an Arts Management degree, now is the time to check it out. Special thanks to the Pasadena Arts Council for hosting this event.
Here’s the scoop:
“Are YOU passionate about the arts? Hear about the only M.A in Arts Management program available in California! Claremont Graduate University invites you to a brown bag lunch at:
Western Justice Center 55 South Grand Avenue Pasadena, CA 91105
Wednesday, December 9th 2009 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm
Laura Zucker, Executive Director of the Los Angeles County Arts Commission and Director of the Arts Management program will speak about this academic opportunity, which includes a new Executive M.A. in Arts Management, a unique new program for mid-to-high level executives in the nonprofit and philanthropic arts and cultural sectors. Critical Issues Facing the Arts in California (The James Irvine Foundation) found that the majority of current leaders of nonprofit cultural institutions have no formal management training. Learning on the job does not substitute for sustained, up-to-date professional management education and entrepreneurial skill development. The world of the visual and performing arts has no shortage of talented, creative artists; what it needs are skilled, perceptive ethical leaders to help organizations adapt in an increasingly competitive and diverse world. Please join us we’ll provide drinks and cookies. RSVP to diana.luna@cgu.edu or call 909.607.9109.”
