"INCENTIVES: Funding Advocacy" Panel Discussion

“INCENTIVES: Funding Advocacy” PANEL DISCUSSION November 15 | Cass City Cinema at the Burton Theater (3420 cass ave) | 6pm Panel Discussion | 8pm Reception Detroit’s deep history of commercial innovation and industrial production has created innumerable stories of prosperity and devastation. From within this spectrum of aspiration and consequence, has emerged a fertile environment that gives root to new and emerging creativity and opportunity while establishing a remarkable legacy of philanthropic and institutional support. This environment has created a sophisticated network of resources, where large scale national foundations, anchor institutions, and influential local leaders work alongside small scale arts groups, community development coalitions, entrepreneurs, and development advocates to develop locally focused programs. In the space of this network, numerous projects are underway, and many more are yet to come. Our discussion is intended to catalogue these efforts, discuss their impact, and outline new and innovative strategies for grants, incentives and other programs in the future.
