posted by Christopher Howard — Oct 31, 2008
Two nonprofit arts-advocacy groups, Americans for the Arts and Business Committee for the Arts (BCA), announced yesterday that they will merge their operations, creating the largest-ever advocacy group for the arts in the private sector. The partnership will further enable the organization to generate increased private-sector support for the arts and arts education by engaging and educating business leaders nationwide on the economic impact and value of the arts in business and community settings.
Americans for the Arts has issued a press release on the merger and also published two lists of frequently asked questions for its members and the general public.
