To help build community, and to best support collaboration and resource sharing, A.R.T./New York hosts semi-annual membership convenings. In this special episode of What’s Off?, hosts Nicky Maggio and Ashley J. Hicks take a trip down memory lane to highlight some of their favorite moments from our 2023 Fall Forum and 2024 Spring Summit. 

First, they revisit clips from a panel discussion on “Marketing and Audience Development” featuring an array of perspectives on what's working, what’s not, and what new strategies we might try in order to best reach and engage our audiences.  Then, we listen to clips from “The Advocators: Forging Paths to Better Pay!” - a discussion between freelance artists and workers who are advocating for pay equity in new and impactful ways.

Tune in to this special episode where we shine the spotlight on field innovators, recorded live and in conversation with each other!
