Although the timing of congressional votes keep getting kicked around, it remains a crucial time in Washington for arts education.
There is an old quote attributed to John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich:
After attending Salvador Acevedo’s session, The New Mainstream: How Changing Demographics Are Shifting Your Community, at our Annual Convention in San Antonio this past weekend I learned that there are already five minority majority states in the U.S., and they’re not little.
Vermont, like many states, is considering comprehensive tax reform. Committees in the Vermont Senate and House developed proposals last legislative session and systemic changes seem high on the agenda for the 2014 session. Key components focus on increasing the portion of personal income that is taxed by capping deductions, including charitable contributions.
If passed, this revision to the tax code would negatively affect the work of nonprofit organizations statewide.
Does size matter? Of course it does. But is this the right question to ask first?
How about approaching the question of size by first asking how arts, culture, and philanthropy advance positive social change? And how does size relate to equity?
