"New Fundamentals and Practices to Increase Cultural Participation and Develop Arts Audiences", by Jerry Yoshitomi
There is a growing understanding and foundation for increasing participation in arts and cultural activities, based on recent research, writings on past practice, pilot projects and the application of theory from related fields. The result is a set of new fundamentals and practices that can increase the number of participants and audiences, deepen the participation of current participants and reach the next generation of adult participants. This work is supported by several foundations, including the Walter and Elise Haas Fund, the Heinz Endowments, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the James Irvine Foundation, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation and the The Wallace Foundation.
