The arts industry has a serious problem – cash. Despite the fact that the arts can foster community, bring in money to local economies and inspire a love of learning, funding for the arts is a low priority. That means fundraisers at arts organizations have the important task of keeping their companies – and the industry at large – alive. Karen Brooks Hopkins pulls from more than 30 years of fundraising experience to share the trials and triumphs of this important job, and encourages anyone interested to join the cause.
