| Abstract | Private sector support is vital to the health of the arts. Yet the nature of that support is changing. What do the values and lifestyles of the baby-boom generation mean to the future of the arts? How will the rapidly changing economic and social climate affect the corporate commitment to giving? Are government matching grant programs effective in leveraging "new" money from the private sector? How do private foundations set policy agendas and make decisions? Judith H. Balfe of C.U.N.Y., Pat Clubb of the Texas Commission on the Arts, Michael Useem of Boston University, and J. Mark Davidson Schuster of M.I.T. analyze this crucial subject with uncanny insight and unusual clarity. For anyone responsible for the future of arts institutions, this book is indispensable reading. |
