As you might know, many arts organizations, even the largest and most prestigious, are having enormous funding challenges and live on the brink of bankruptcy.
ODC is a 40-year dance organization with a model that I believe can transform and modernize how arts organizations support themselves in the future. It's a highly entrepreneurial place with significant real estate holdings and a revenue model where 50% of the budget is via earned means (as opposed to donations).
It's a very different approach to funding the arts that I believe all arts groups can learn from to thrive and survive, and I hope to study, perfect, and scale to other organizations.
