The Art of Participation
Shared Lessons in Audience Engagement
As nonprofit cultural organizations face the challenges of declining income and rising competition from new forms of entertainment, it is imperative that we unite in support of our common mission to make arts and culture a more vital part of people’s lives.
To that end, the MCC partnered with The
Boston Foundation and the Wallace
Foundation in a four-year effort to increase local participation
in the arts and promote the effective exchange of knowledge about
expanding audiences.
This publication, The Art of Participation, is part of
our effort to spread the word about what we learned and accomplished
over that time. In it you will find details on a range of projects
in diverse disciplines, from dance and theatre, to music and the
visual arts. The publication also outlines the process of building
and maintaining a learning network and acknowledges the intriguing
cultural thinkers who shared their ideas with us.
