Now is a time to come together.

Each week we will host calls with arts leadership in our region to discuss what our field knows and is doing right now, as well as how we might get clear on and coordinated about what’s ahead.

Hosted by John Anderson (Michigan Science Center), Emily Ross (The Ark), and Gerry VanAcker (Detroit Zoological Society), these calls take place weekly on Wednesdays from 1:30-2:30pm.

These calls are geared towards senior staff in operations and programming, who manage people, productions, finances, and/or programs at arts organizations. To get added to the Senior Staff Call list and receive call information weekly via email, please email [email protected]

Please note Senior Staff calls have been temporarily suspended. We are continuing to investigate the best way to convene and share knowledge with participants.
