Our Co-Founder and Executive Producer Scott Silberstein's latest blog begins: "There's a saying we have posted on our kitchen fridge that says, 'You need not attend every argument to which you are invited.' I thought about that when a colleague of mine – someone I’ve known for years, someone with a history of supporting the arts and advocating for artists – invited me into the 'are the arts really essential?' argument. I declined." Click through to see what he did instead, and how the extraordinary Renee Fleming, Harry Lennix and Lindsay Jones figured in. https://lnkd.in/gwYfpiDT

THE SCOOP Friends, thank you again for the time and support you’ve allowed us these past six months of transformation. We would not be able to share this exciting news without your patience, belief, and encouragement. And without your generous donations. Thank you! At long last, it’s time to give you THE SCOOP. The hot goss. The haps. As the newly appointed Artistic Director, I could not be more excited to share our vision of the future with you.
