If your organization serves 100 students, what happens to those students? In this episode, Alan Harrison, author of Scene Change, delivers a sobering truth: producing art is no longer enough. In a post-NEA world, funders will demand data, not anecdotes.

We unpack:

  • Why arts nonprofits are losing funding—and relevance

  • The difference between teaching and educating

  • What it means to become a movement instead of just a mission

  • How to survive this shift by measuring impact in real-time

This episode is for arts leaders, funders, and policymakers who know it’s time to stop justifying the arts—and start proving them.
