Arts Midwest Launches Ideas Hub

by Alana Horton

Arts Midwest is excited to announce the launch of the Ideas Hub, a collection of free curated resources and tools that help arts leaders foster growth within their organizations. The Ideas Hub connects busy professionals with experts in artistic programming; communications; leadership and culture; diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility; fundraising; strategy; community engagement; and more.

The Ideas Hub is designed for nonprofit leaders who want to go beyond the day-to-day operations of their organization to build a sustainable future. Inspired by our ArtsLab curriculum, articles in the Ideas Hub make work easier by simplifying complex concepts, sharing real-life examples, and providing the framework for turning ideas into reality.

“Nonprofits across the Midwest do incredible work to drive impact in their communities,” said Torrie Allen, President & CEO of Arts Midwest. “The Ideas Hub is meant to help keep this momentum going by offering free and accessible tools that help creative organizations grow.”

Access to the Ideas Hub is completely free and does not require a subscription or membership thanks to the generous support of the McKnight Foundation.
