Transforming Competition into Collaboration Through Sharing Proprietary Information: What We Can Learn From Bay Area Arts Organizations
San Francisco
Thursday, October 2, 5:30-8:30 pm
Co-sponsored with Craigslist Foundation, CompassPoint, and Northern California Grantmakers
At the second Power of Partnership event, we will take an in-depth look at the "Big List" and how San Francisco has become one of many cities around the country where arts organizations are beginning to share their proprietary marketing lists to increase the sustainability of arts culture city-wide. This project has been funded by the Wallace Foundation, San Francisco Foundation, and Grants for the Arts and managed by Theatre Bay Area in an effort to match if not exceed the success in other urban centers.
We will take a look at how this project began, the many challenges that arose and how they were able to turn what was previously a competitive environment into a collaborative effort. We will also highlight how many of the experiences in creating the Bay Area Big List are applicable to creating collaboration across the nonprofit sector. The event will also feature time to network with your peers and refreshments.
