What does it take to future-proof the arts?

In this episode of ARTS Redefined, Angela P. Meleca is joined by arts entrepreneur and professor Jeffrey Nytch to address the pressing need for new skills, models, and approaches to make a lasting impact.

Angela and Jeffrey explore why arts organizations must move beyond adapting — and start leading — by getting proximate to the communities they serve, building strategic partnerships, and embracing bold programming.

They discuss:

• Why transferable skills from the arts are critical to the innovation economy

• How creativity strengthens STEM fields

• Why audience engagement must go beyond traditional models

• New ways to measure arts impact and relevance in 2025

If you’re ready to lead the future of the arts — not just survive it — this conversation is your blueprint.
