I was using the Storify export function, and it wigged out. I apologize for the repeated bogus posts. Here is the actual chat transcript I was attempting to post: [View the story “#Auddev chat, 9/27, Noon ET – Arts, Change & Audiences” on Storify] Cheers to happy and loyal audiences, Shoshana Shoshana Fanizza Audience Development…
Do you want to get a good lather going for audience development? I know you have heard me mention outreach before, but I’m not sure everyone has taken action. There are two ways to develop an audience. You can throw tons of money into marketing efforts, and if you have the tons of money to…
Last week I was on a family vacation at a club resort in Wyoming. It was an inexpensive way to have a staycation since it was only 3 hours away. During my time there, I was witnessing all the different tricks of the trade they used to make their guests feel special. Here is a…
I have been looking at my archived posts, and I discovered that I do not have a “dance” tag established. There is a big reason for this. I am not seeing as much news and information about audience development for dance. How can this be? I scan for articles daily, and I from time to…

I just finished reading Classical music ain’t just for snobs When I saw the title, I was expecting an article detailing the various reasons why classical music can be enjoyed by everyone and anyone. I should have known better. It turned out to be another critical essay regarding the format of how someone is presenting…
Part 2 of the adventure unfolds! Yesterday I felt like my head was still at NAMPC while my body was milling around Boulder, CO. It was a very strange feeling. This probably can be attributed to not being able to download the entire experience. I may never be able to do this, but I will…
