The Anchor Project was a fascinating 2-year endeavor that investigated the question, “how can anchor cultural institutions in low income communities and communities in transition make maximum artistic, social and economic impact?”
Our team studied three (3) sites in different States that were all very different in terms of size and program focus, but had many similarities regarding the challenges they faced delivering meaningful service and visionary events to both local residents and visitors.
The full report is loaded with data and information, but, ultimately, we arrived at some key “takeaways” that we believe offer important pathways to success. Our contention is simply that, adhering to these concepts will bring more money, more firepower and more status to your organization, as well as better outcomes for your audience.
