In the fall of 2006 the Program in Arts Administration in conjunction with the Harlem Arts Alliance and the Alliance of New York State Arts Organizations offered the special research apprenticeship course, "Advocating for the Arts of the Future," in order to train the next generation of arts advocates. Students interviewed and surveyed Harlem legislators, artists, and arts organizations over a four-month period. Results were presented to hundreds of Harlem community members and supporters at two Harlem Arts Alliance events. Currently, students are preparing to travel to Arts Advocacy Day in Albany on March 6, 2007 to put the lessons they learned into practice. This course was made possible in part with funds from the CU Arts Initiative.

NEW STUDY RELEASED BY THE RESEARCH CENTER FOR ARTS AND CULTURE

A recent study conducted by the Research Center for Arts and Culture, has shown that aging artists, unlike the stereotype of people becoming more isolated as they age, tend to remain passionate, display high self esteem and life satisfaction. Artists stay engaged and productive well past retirement age, and if given the chance to select their profession over again, would not choose differently.
