Leveraging Investments in Creativity (LINC) - 1 views

  •  
    Leveraging Investments in Creativity (LINC) is a ten-year national initiative to improve the conditions for artists working in all disciplines. As a vital and immeasurable component of our cultural and collective identity, artists help us interpret our past, define our present and imagine our future. Working artists make resonant contributions to the daily lives of our communities, not only as creators, but also as entrepreneurs, educators and involved citizens. Representing more than 2 million working adults in 2001 (up from 730,000 in 1970), artists are a vibrant and ever-growing sector of the American workforce. However, artists are typically underpaid in relation to their peers with similar education and skill sets.

Fashion & Cosmetics Articles - How Jewelry Are the Best Gift for women - Amazines.com A... - 0 views

  •  
    From the times of Adam and eve, women have loved to pamper themselves by embellishing their beauty with fine pieces of jewelry. It has been the forte of an artist to create jewelry from pebbles and stones or bones and teeth to now gold and diamond. Those creations over the times have been graced by the beauty and vanity of a lady. To honor a mother or to pamper your lover or maybe to let a friend know you adore her, a fine piece of jewelry would do the best speaking. Earrings, necklaces, nose pins, anklets, bracelets, rings, brooches are all what means the world to their owners. However, one of major concern while buying the perfect gift is to choose the material of the jewelry of the choice of the lady you want to gift. Jewelry can be costume, ethnic, wood, gold, silver and diamond. Each has their own highlights and specialties. Every woman has different taste, so it is very important to pick the right piece in terms of material and design. It often becomes very difficult to run to different stores to find that perfect piece of gem for a perfect gift. To solve such problems, online stores are at your rescue. They offer a very wide range of different types of ornaments, various international brands and different collections.

Assessing the Capacity for Collective Action in the Performance Arts Field - NPAC 2008 ... - 0 views

  •  
    At least since the early 1990s, the cultural field has lamented the fact that it is a disaggregated and distributed policy field. Policy agendas and new practices emerge in specific contexts, pushed along by actors and organizations that have particular interests. Leaders have increasingly become aware of the need for a consistent and powerful collective action agenda -or a common set of ideas recognized by most arts leaders, artists, arts activists and advocates as important issues for debate, dialogue, and action. \n\nThe 2008 National Performing Arts Convention was a self-conscious effort to answer this clarion call-to bring together arts leaders across disciplines to learn from each other, identify common goals, and advance a field-wide agenda. Was collective action possible? What were the constraints and opportunities for action?
