Cultural Policy Listserv

Americans for the Arts Sponsors Continuation of the Cultural Policy Listserv

In December of 2005, after more than a decade of work dedicated to help improve the research infrastructure, foster and broaden public debate about cultural policy and provide timely information and news, the Center for Arts and Culture brought its work to a close.

The continuously declining availability of general operating support is a common plight and growing threat to the long-term sustainability of the arts and the nonprofit sector. Unfortunately the Center has proven not to be immune to this trend.

The Center for Arts and Culture’s Board and staff worked with Americans for the Arts to develop a plan for the listserv and provide for future access to the Center’s many policy and research publications. In addition, Americans for the Arts was able to employ the Center’s dedicated staff who has done so much to make these activities successful in serving the cultural policy field. As such, the cultural policy communications which the Center initiated will carry on and continue to serve the field.
