This book is the ultimate overview of running an arts non-for-profit in the 21st century. The book does a great job of covering lots of areas that are relevant for any board member or c-suite level position in an arts organization.

Deserves 4.5 stars due to the general typos in the text, but the content is great. Learned a lot about nonprofit organizations and, more specifically, arts organizations. One of my favorite textbook reads for a class ever.

This is a textbook, and I only read it to help a friend if mine with a paper, but I honestly learned so much! It's the business side of community art programs and it's something social worker types (like me) should also be learning in grad school!

Great reference book and cover to cover read.
