Uy ngayon, mga kasamahan sa WESTAF:<\/span><\/p>\n

Isang siksikan noong nakaraang ilang linggo, gaya ng dati. Una sa recap na ito, isang kidlat na pag-update sa kung ano ang nangyayari sa Senado ng US. Pagkatapos, mayroon kaming napakagandang balita tungkol sa isang bagong karagdagan sa koponan pati na rin ang ilang matalinong galaw sa dibisyon ng negosyo, na may mas bukas na mga posisyon at panayam na nagpapanatiling abala sa amin (salamat, Becca Dominguez!) at patuloy na umuunlad. Pagkatapos nito, mayroong isang detalyadong recap ng online na session ng ALAS noong nakaraang linggo. Maraming salamat sa team ALAS David Holland, Leah Horn, Samantha Ortega at Natalie Scherlong at mga espesyal na shoutout din sa policy cohort na sina Brandon Jay, Justine Chapel, Janae De La Virgen at Lauren Wilson para sa moderation prep at mad skills. Sa pagsasalita tungkol sa mga shout-out, ang Celebration & Wellness Committees ay nag-anunsyo ng isang Shout-Out channel sa WESTAF's Slack community: \u201chabang patuloy kaming nakikibagay sa isang distributed na kapaligiran sa lugar ng trabaho, nakatuon kami sa pagtukoy ng mga bagong paraan upang palakasin ang koneksyon, paghihikayat, at pagkilala. Dahil dito, inaanyayahan ka naming sumali sa Shout-Out! channel sa Slack! Gagamitin ang espasyong ito para kilalanin ang sinuman at lahat ng kasamahan na pinaniniwalaan mong karapat-dapat ng ilang papuri!" Salamat sa pag-set up niyan \u2014 nasasabik kami tungkol dito! Kaya't sa pagpunta dito, narito kung ano ang nagpapanatiling abala sa amin:<\/span><\/p>\n

BINIGYAN ANG $1.9 TRILLION AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN UMUWI SA BAHAY (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

This<\/span> March 7 Arts Action Alert<\/span><\/a> from AFTA\u2019s Arts Action Fund sums things up nicely, but briefly: with some amendments, the Senate passed the $1.9 Trillion American Rescue Plan over the weekend. It now goes back to the House for a final vote on the same bill before heading to President Biden for his signature, with a target date for enactment of March 14, 2021. While many parts of the bill should have numerous direct and indirect impacts on our sector, of special note is that it adds $1.25 billion additional funds to the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant (SVOG) program, and entities can now apply for both PPP and SVOG, for a net award. Also \u2014 intact after at least four GOP amendments sought to terminate them \u2014 $135M for NEA, $135M for NEH to provide grants \u201cto prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from the coronavirus\u201d as well as funding for the IMLS and CPB. We\u2019ll know more about how this will impact WESTAF in the weeks ahead and we\u2019ll keep you posted.<\/span><\/p>\n

WESTAF WELCOMES ANIKA KWINANA BILANG DIRECTOR NG SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND INCLUSION (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

For now, please do not share this information as we\u2019ll be making an official announcement soon. Anika Kwinana, currently manager of national education initiatives at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, will be joining WESTAF on April 5, 2021 as our incoming Director of Social Responsibility and Inclusion. Anika is Chair of the Arts Administrators of Color Network, and has organized their annual convening that brings together hundreds of leaders nationally. Anika’s credentials in arts and culture and equity are exemplary, and her work has intersected other sectors such as STEM and public health. Her work has touched the Western region, the nation as a whole, and our global community. Anika grew up in Northern California and has worked extensively in the majority of the states in the region. We are excited to welcome a new colleague to WESTAF and the Leadership Resource Team. Before April 5, Anika will be participating in some WESTAF ELC sessions in March to engage the 2021 Cohort. This <\/span>draft of the welcome announcement<\/span><\/a> is being shared, so you can get to know more about Anika – at least what appears in a bio. We are excited for Anika to be joining our team at a pivotal moment. Anika stood out to our review committee as the top candidate, being a leader who will bring much to the culture and impact of WESTAF<\/span><\/p>\n

CHRISTINA VILLA AY BAGONG DIRECTOR NG NEGOSYO (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Nasasabik na iulat na ang aming kasamahan na si Christina Villa ay may bagong tungkulin sa pamumuno sa WESTAF, na epektibo kaagad: direktor ng negosyo. Sa bagong kapasidad na ito, pangungunahan ni Christina ang estratehiko at direksyon ng pagpapatakbo ng departamento ng negosyo na kinabibilangan ng lahat ng limang produkto ng SaaS ng WESTAF. Kasama ng GO Smart, Creative Vitality Suite at Public Art Archive, ipagpapatuloy ni Christina ang kanyang matibay na koneksyon sa ZAPP at CaFE, at malapit na siyang kasangkot sa madiskarteng, pangmatagalang direksyon ng buong SaaS division ng WESTAF. Sa amin na naging sapat na mapalad na makatrabaho si Christina ay alam na dadalhin niya sa pinalawak na tungkuling ito ang isang matalas na katalinuhan sa negosyo at isang hindi natitinag na pangako sa kasiyahan ng customer, pagpapanatili at pagkahumaling. Mahinahon niyang pinangasiwaan ang koponan ng ZAPP at ang mga customer at kasosyo ng ZAPP sa pinakamasama nitong nakakahamak na pandemyang ito. Palaging nagpapakita si Christina nang matalino, maalalahanin at mabait, at alam kong kasama ko ang aking mga kasamahan sa pamumuno sa pakiramdam na napakaswerte na makatrabaho siya sa bagong kapasidad na ito. Congratulations Christina!<\/span><\/p>\n

KARAGDAGANG PAGBABAGO NG PAMUMUNO SA BUSINESS DIVISION (CV)<\/b><\/h2>\n

In turn, Christina is happy to share that Mareike Bergen has been promoted to ZAPP manager, where she\u2019ll be overseeing day-to-day ZAPP operations and guiding ZAPP into its next, post-COVID-19 recovery phase. Her analytical thinking, commitment to finding solutions, and aptitude for crunching numbers make her an excellent fit for the role, and we\u2019re thrilled to have new leadership in ZAPP.\u00a0 Also, Natalie Villa will assume an expanded role under the new title of business project manager. She\u2019ll be working on large business projects, improving business workflows, standardizing SaaS processes, and guiding efforts at the intersection of business and technology for all five SaaS products. Natalie\u2019s strong organizational and time management skills and ability to understand and communicate complicated processes will be especially valuable in this role. To help support Natalie\u2019s expanded responsibilities, <\/span>we\u2019ll be adding a brand-new position<\/span><\/a>, listed as business project coordinator. This role will report directly to Natalie and will be instrumental in helping support project management efforts for all five SaaS products. Please share with your networks!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ARTS LEADERSHIP & ADVOCACY SEMINAR ONLINE WRAPS, HIGIT SA VIRTUAL EVENT INDUSTRY PARTICIPATION BENCHMARKS (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

All indications are that the online ALAS session was a success. In the end, we received 104 registrations for the event, over 80 of whom were non-staff or speakers. We achieved a 63% conversion rate, and 64 unique participants at an average of 35 participants per session. In comparing these results against industry benchmarks for webinars and virtual events, we exceeded the average conversion rate (43-55%) and the average number of participants in a session (20). An event survey has been released, and we will utilize feedback to inform future ALAS convenings and the creative economy seminar we plan to host on Aventri later in the year. Recordings are available on the <\/span>event website<\/span><\/a> for anyone that registered for the event, and we will be making the recordings available to a broader audience in the coming weeks. The Convenings Team and Policy Cohort had a debrief with Christian to discuss ways to improve participant experience for future events and begin to solidify goals for ALAS\u2019 new incarnation. Ashanti McGee, district representative in the office of U.S. Representative Susie Lee of Nevada, was the first ELC alumni to be featured as a speaker in the ALAS program (a move welcomed by our alumni network), and ELC alumni as far afield as Paris, France (Cynthia Chen, ELC 17\/UT, now at Centre Pompidou) participated in the program. With the engagement of three current or former Congressional staffers in the session (also a first for ALAS), Western advocacy and policy organizations, including the Western Governors\u2019 Association, higher education institutions, private philanthropic organizations, creative industry businesses, and national advocacy groups, like the Cultural Advocacy Group and the National Independent Venue Association, we have begun to expand the reach of ALAS and engage key stakeholders segments in our national advocacy and thought leadership work as identified in the stakeholder maps established by the Alliances, Advocacy, and Policy Department in 2019.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

WESTAF EMERGING LEADERS OF COLOR ONLINE NA ILUNSAD SA 10 ARAW NA MAY PINALAWANG COHORT NA 16 (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Sina David, Madalena Salazar, Margie Reese, at Salvador Acevedo ay tinatapos ang mga plano at pagsasaayos para sa paparating na Emerging Leaders of Color Program. 16 na kalahok na kumakatawan sa lahat ng 13 estado sa rehiyon ay inimbitahan na sumali sa 2021 Cohort. Pinalawak namin ang programa sa taong ito upang samantalahin ang mga tumaas na aplikasyon mula sa mga estado kung saan naging mas mahirap ang pagtukoy ng mga kandidato sa nakaraan. Ang karagdagang impormasyon tungkol sa mga kalahok ay ilalabas habang tinatapos ang mga elemento ng programa. Ang mga alumni ng ELC ay patuloy na aktibong nakikilahok sa pagbuo ng programa. Alex Jimenez ay makikipagtulungan sa amin upang bumuo ng isang microsite para sa programang WESTAF, tulad ng ginawa niya dati para sa inaugural na programa sa South Arts. Nakikipag-usap din kami sa ELC alumna na si Christy NaMee Erickson at sa kanyang kumpanyang Kindred Post, na nakabase sa Alaska, tungkol sa paglikha ng mga pakete ng regalo para sa mga kalahok, isang bagong tampok ng online na programa. Kasama sa mga prospective na guest speaker si Dr. Nancy Maryboy, presidente at tagapagtatag ng Indigenous Education Institute, at Mexican performance artist at pintor na si Ana Teresa Fern\u00e1ndez.<\/span><\/p>\n

TUMAWAG KAY ADRIAN SAN MIGUEL, POTENSIAL TRUSTEE (CG)\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

Noong nakaraang Lunes, ang dating Idaho trustee at miyembro ng EIC na sina Michael Faison, Tamara at Christian ay nagkita sa Zoom kasama si Adrian San Miguel. Si Adrian ay isang Commissioner para sa Idaho Arts Commission. Siya ang direktor ng post-secondary education para sa Idaho Career and Technical Education sa Board of Education. Siya ay orihinal na mula sa Rio Grande Valley ng Texas. Isang sinanay na mang-aawit sa opera, si Adrian ay gumugol ng buong buhay na kasangkot sa lahat ng uri ng musika. Ito ay isang napakagandang pag-uusap, at natutunan namin ang higit pa tungkol kay Adrian at iniwan din namin ang tawag na mas maunawaan ang tungkol sa interes ni Adrian sa WESTAF. Mula noong tawagan, nagpadala kami kay Adrian ng ilang karagdagang impormasyon sa oryentasyon ng trustee at magsusumite siya ng maikling pahayag ng interes sa komite ng pagpapaunlad bilang paghahanda para sa pulong ng mga trustee sa Mayo 20.<\/span><\/p>\n

MURDOCK TRUST ZOOM SITE VISIT (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Malaking pasasalamat kay chair Alvarado, vice chair Broughton at treasurer Lange pati na rin kina David Holland at Amy Hollrah sa sikat na pagkatawan sa WESTAF sa aming virtual site visit kasama si MJ Murdock Charitable Trust program officer Lorin Dunlop noong Pebrero 23. Detalyadong tinalakay namin ang WESTAF Programs Expansion panukala para sa pagpopondo sa pagbuo ng kapasidad kamakailan na isinumite sa tiwala. Ang malawak at nagbibigay-liwanag na 135 minutong pag-uusap na ito ay nagbunga ng isang hanay ng mga follow-up na tanong at mga kahilingan para sa karagdagang impormasyon na isinumite namin nitong nakaraang linggo. Makikipag-ugnayan sa amin si Lorin sa anumang mga tanong na nagpapaliwanag habang binubuo niya ang salaysay ng panukala para sa board of directors ng trust, na magpupulong sa Mayo 27 para gumawa ng pinal na desisyon.<\/span><\/p>\n

AMERICAN EXPRESS DEVELOPING LEADERS LETTER OF INTEREST (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

WESTAF has been in a conversation with Torrie Allen, CEO of Arts Midwest as well as our sister RAOs, in imagining how the ELC program and LC network could develop into a program with national reach by leveraging the RAO reach and infrastructure.\u00a0 A brief summary of this concept (still with plenty of details to be worked out) can be gleaned from <\/span>this letter of inquiry<\/span><\/a> we recently submitted to the American Express Foundation\u2019s <\/span>Developing Leadership<\/span><\/a> Program, following up on a lead from Torrie. As you can gather, this is a preliminary inquiry that briefly lays out the history of the ELC and proposes an expanded national program. While this is a bit of a fishing expedition, it\u2019s worth noting that American Express devoted 29% of its philanthropy to its Developing Leaders program in 2019, so if this lands right we might have a shot at continuing the conversation. At the very least, it\u2019s useful language for future proposals.<\/span><\/p>\n

KASAMA ANG WESTAF SA ARTS INTEGRATION AT NATIONAL RECOVERY MEETING NA HOSTED NG NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS LEADERSHIP (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Si David ay inimbitahan na sumali sa isang maliit na grupo ng pitong arts advocacy at mga pinuno ng patakaran sa buong bansa (apat na nakabase sa Kanluran) upang talakayin ang mga pagkakataon na makisali sa mga artista sa pambansang pagbawi kasama ang mga senior na hinirang na Biden-Harris sa National Endowment for the Arts, kabilang si Ra Joy, Chief of Staff, at Jenn Chang, Senior Advisor sa Chief of Staff at White House Liaison.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ANG WESTAF AT NASAA AY NAGBUBUO NG MGA CREATIVE ECONOMIES AT ECONOMY RECOVERY KEY FINDINGS PARA SA POLICY AUDIENCES (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Patricia Mullaney-Ross, research manager at NASAA, and David have produced a <\/span>key findings brief<\/span><\/a> that draws out key insights from the Creative Economies and Economic Recovery study conducted by the CVSuite team that is designed to be used in engagements with policymakers and advocates.<\/span><\/p>\n

WESTAF GALVANIZES ARTS ADVOCATES UPANG MAKIPAG-UGNAYAN ANG COLORADO JOINT BUDGET COMMITTEE SA SUPORTA NG COLORADO CREATIVE INDUSTRIES BUDGET RESTORATION (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Sa pakikipagtulungan sa Brandeberry McKenna Public Affairs, naglabas kamakailan ng alerto sina David at Leah sa network ng adbokasiya ng WESTAF sa CO upang hikayatin ang pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga miyembro ng Colorado General Assembly, partikular ang Joint Budget Committee, upang suportahan ang pagpapanumbalik ng $900,000 sa Colorado Badyet ng Creative Industries. Nagpulong ang Joint Budget Committee noong Marso 2, 2021 upang simulan ang mga talakayan sa pagtatakda ng badyet para sa mga ahensya ng Gobernador's Office, kabilang ang Colorado Creative Industries at ang home department nito na Office of Economic Development at International Trade.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

NASAA BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Dumalo si Christian sa kanyang unang pagpupulong bilang miyembro ng lupon ng NASAA. Napakagandang makita ang ilang pamilyar na mukha ng WESTAF sa Zoom!<\/span><\/p>\n

RE-FRAMING ARTS AND DISABILITY SA ATING REGION AND BEYOND (CG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Within the WESTAF community, with the designated SAA accessibility coordinators in our region, and also with our sister RAOs, WESTAF has been in conversations of late about disability culture, accessibility initiatives and possible ways to create and develop authentic, better-resourced programs that reflect the disability communities we should better see and serve. Recently we engaged <\/span>DisArt<\/span><\/a> to help us build awareness, agency and ownership within our immediate communities. Acknowledgement in particular to Lani Morris, grants and accessibility coordinator here at WESTAF for leading and helping us imagine how we could approach this work. More to come soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

STRATEGIC PLAN (NS)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Matagumpay na nakatulong ang mga miyembro ng policy cohort na i-moderate ang Q&A portion ng Arts Leadership & Advocacy Seminar (ALAS) noong Pebrero 24 at 25. Naging matagumpay ang seminar at talagang nasiyahan ang lahat ng miyembro sa pag-ambag sa kaganapan. Ang grupo ay nagpaplano na magpulong sa susunod na 1-2 linggo upang maghanda para sa aming pagpupulong kasama ang aming mga Tagapayo ng Katiwala sa ika-19 ng Marso. Ang pagpupulong na ito ay magbibigay ng pagkakataon para sa isang bukas na talakayan patungkol sa scoping na dokumento sa mga TA. Ang ilang mga katiwala ay nagrepaso at nagtanong sa grupo, kaya kami ay nasasabik para sa isang mabungang talakayan!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PANANALAPI AT ADMINISTRASYON (AH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Nakikipag-usap si Amy sa mga auditor tungkol sa draft ng pag-audit: maayos ang pag-unlad ng mga bagay. Nilibot nina Amy at Becca ang ilang flexible na opsyon sa espasyo ng opisina sa downtown Denver at nakahanap ng ilang kawili-wiling opsyon sa sandaling mag-expire ang Sherman St. office lease sa katapusan ng Disyembre. Ang apela ay nagbabayad lamang para sa oras na gumagamit ka ng mga meeting room at gumagamit lamang ng mga meeting room kapag ang personal na trabaho ay kapaki-pakinabang. Si Becca ay abala sa mataas na dami ng HR work para mag-post at punan ang maraming posisyon sa staff. Ang WESTAF ay may bagong patakaran na i-post ang lahat ng mga pagkakataong pang-promosyon sa loob na isang bagong pagbabago sa aming mga proseso. Si Becky ay abala sa taunang pag-renew ng insurance sa negosyo at patuloy na dinadagdagan nina Jess at Lauren ang bilang ng mga kliyente ng ZAPP na binabayaran sa pamamagitan ng EFT bawat buwan, at sa gayon ay binabawasan ang bilang ng mga tsekeng papel na ipinapadala bawat buwan. Sinanay na si Janae sa sistema ng pananalapi at maaari na ngayong kumuha ng pag-uulat para sa koponan ng ZAPP kapag kinakailangan nang mabilis. Malaking tulong ito para sa buong team.<\/span><\/p>\n

CAFE (RV)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Ken closed out February with 15 new CaFE clients and Eliza set up 107 new calls in February consisting of new and renewing customers. Also in February, Justine interviewed Ed Dixon of Edward A. Dixon Gallery for a customer spotlight on the CaFE blog. <\/span>Check it out here<\/span><\/a>. Justine kicked off a month-long BOGO e-blast campaign and customers have already begun reserving their e-blast dates. This month, Raquel, Lori, and Christina have a meeting with the CEO at <\/span>Lingar<\/span><\/a>, a SaaS product that makes use of augmented reality to deliver interpretive exhibit content, to explore potential partnerships with CaFE and PAA. Finally, we expect a busy month as CaFE has 111 call deadlines out of a total 217 call listings.<\/span><\/p>\n

CVSUITE (KE)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Isang kapana-panabik na pagkakataon ang dumating para sa CVS. Iminungkahi ng isa sa aming mga kliyente, Cultural Planning Group na ang CVSuite at WESTAF ay magkasosyo para sa isang proyekto, na isang pagsusuri sa downtown ng Midvale City na nakatuon sa mga negosyong nakabatay sa sining at kultura upang makatulong na gabayan ang mga aktibidad nito. Dahil ang lungsod ay interesado sa paggamit ng pananaliksik na ito upang bumuo ng mga sentro ng kultura na itinulad sa CCI at ArtsWA maaari itong maging isang kapana-panabik na pagkakataon para sa WESTAF na suportahan ang rehiyon nito. Ang CVSuite ay patuloy na sumusulong sa CVList. Nakolekta ni Lori ang halos lahat ng impormasyon mula sa aming 6 na kasosyo at ang koponan ay nagpapaliit na ngayon sa pagitan ng dalawang photographer. Natanggap namin ang aming mga hindi pa nababayarang tseke mula sa aming mga pag-renew sa Pebrero at nagbenta ng $500 data pull sa isang kliyente sa PA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

GO SMART (JG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Direktang nakipag-ugnayan si Jessica sa 22 maiinit na lead na nagresulta mula sa unang email campaign noong Enero. Nagsimula na ang trabaho sa isang Equitable Grantmaking webinar para sa kasalukuyan at potensyal na mga kliyente na may tulong mula sa SRI team. Ang tech team ay gumawa ng progreso sa HTML\/PDF cache na karanasan at halos kumpleto na sa isang maliit na ticket upang matiyak na ang lahat ng mga panelist na user ay default sa mga naaangkop na setting. Dalawang kliyente (Hawaii at San Diego) ang nagdagdag ng mga karagdagang hindi inaasahang serbisyo na prorated sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga petsa ng pag-expire ng subscription sa huling bahagi ng tag-init na ito. Ang Seattle Office of Arts and Culture ay nag-renew ngunit bahagyang binawasan ang kanilang serbisyo, at kita sa pag-renew.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PUBLIC ART ARCHIVE (LG)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Lori completed the design, build, and launch of the <\/span>Sunnyvale Public Art Showcase page<\/span><\/a> and public art collection in conjunction with the City\u2019s new public art page hosted on their website. PAA is finalizing details with the City of Phoenix Arts & Culture Department to establish a subscription to the PAA CMS and Showcase services – next steps include a discussion about the security of the system prior to the contractual process. Lori is working with the CVS team on the Creative Vitality List #3 to promote 6 cities in the WESTAF region as public art road trip destinations. Lori is also leading the NEA Women\u2019s Suffrage Mural Project and is working with Lani to polish and distribute the Call to Artists slated for publishing on March 5.<\/span><\/p>\n

ZAPP (CV)<\/b><\/h2>\n

Abala kami sa paggawa ng plano para ilipat si Mareike sa kanyang tungkulin at kunin ang kanyang kapalit, at, tulad ng CaFE, inaasahan namin ang isang abalang buwan pati na rin ang 102 na mga deadline sa 369 na bukas na palabas. Bilang karagdagan sa pamumuno ni Mareike bilang tagapamahala ng ZAPP, idinaos din namin ang aming session ng ZAPP Connections noong nakaraang linggo. Nakatuon ang session na ito sa mga hamon at pagkakataon sa mga virtual na kaganapan at nagsama ng halo ng mga artist at administrator sa isang roundtable-style na talakayan. Naglabas din kami ng pagpapahusay sa isang panloob na ulat na nagbibigay ng higit na higit na insight sa mga account ng customer at makakatulong sa buwanang mga projection ng cash flow. Gayundin, sa inalis na mga paghihigpit sa COVID sa Texas at Mississippi, inaasahan namin na makakakita kami ng higit pang mga kaganapan na darating sa mga darating na buwan.<\/span><\/p>\n
