Amidst the challenging economic environment, collaborations among arts organizations and artists have become critical to the health of the arts and cultural landscape. The Museum of the Chinese in America (MOCA) and Pratt Institute’s Arts and Cultural Management Program invite you to join us for a discussion on developing and maintaining effective and mutually-beneficial partnerships in the arts. Using cross-cultural collaborations as an entry point, panelists will share their experiences on cross-cultural artistic collaboration and audience development and offer insights on how artists and arts organizations with their respective vision, culture and capacity can respond to the risks and capitalize on the opportunities of collaborations.
