De Cars appears to be making some very interesting changes at the Louvre and entertaining some others. She is addressing the issues of over crowding, easing visitor access, developing new audiences, and recognizing the importance of more “local" patronage. As I noted in a past post, New York City Ballet seems to be on the path of growing new and younger audiences.and reinvigorating its offerings and performers. If the major arts entities located in and near to our major downtowns make similar changes in attitudes and actions, then they can contribute even more strongly to the fun recovery and future growth of those downtowns.  #artsanddowntownrecovery #artsorganizationreitalization #artsrenewalanddowntownrecovery #downtownrecovery

If part of your organisation is dancing to a different beat, customers will see. Detail errors can temporarily be forgiven, yet for a great performance, all parts of your company have to act as one.

If your people don't really know the dance (or it's unremarkable), it's hard for them to deliver something unique. 👉 𝐀 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 Like a great dance performance, the delivery of a unique customer experience requires continuous attention to every single detail. Every movement of the business. Your people will only develop this stamina if they actually ENJOY focusing on the customer and the work they do. 👉 𝐀𝐧 𝐞𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐞𝐝 Even the best choreography will underwhelm if the stage, lighting and dancer's equipment aren't aligned to its delivery. Which means your people - also - need the tools, incentives, and working conditions necessary to deliver the expected experience.

If I looked at your experience as I would look at this group of dancers, would I be impressed? Or would I wince? Think about it! 𝘗𝘚. 𝘞𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 '𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭' 𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘳-𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘺?

Ideal for theater groups or reading clubs and can also be used in aspects related to the cultural world. I think it can also fit into theater or acting schools and travel and tourism agencies. #totem #tiki #culture #tribal #acting #travel #tourism #logo #graphicdesign #diseñografico #sirvector #logoground #creativo #diseñador

Some of the most interesting works of creation understand the old rules enough and then break them. Others tell old stories in new ways. This is how Istanbul’s new-age artists are retelling its old fables. My article in Counter Arts. Happy weekend reading! #storytelling #art #photography #culture #travel

Few people know about the government backed Own Art scheme which breaks down the barriers to collecting art supporting contemporary artists and the galleries that show them. For purchases of £100 or over you can put a deposit down and pay the rest in 10 interest free instalments. That way you get the art you desire and the artist and gallery get the cashflow they need. It’s a great scheme. For example a £500 painting could be acquired with a one off deposit if £50 then 10 monthly instalments of £45 to pay the rest… Be sure to ask about the Own Art scheme next time you’re at a gallery. #ownart #accessible #collecting #artadvisor #collecting #artconsultant
