Summary

In Episode 5 we switch things up and speak not with an organization delivering the arts in a smaller community but with someone here to support those organizations. This month we speak with the Program Director of the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation, Heather Pontonio. Heather runs a program through her foundation called Artists Thrive. Artists Thrive (artiststhrive.org) helps artists and organizations find where they are in their work, where they want to go, what is important to measure, and how they can improve in ways that benefit everyone involved. Artists Thrive is meant to be customized, adapted, and applied to many situations to support artistic work and can be a great resource for small community artists and arts leaders. Their tools can also be used again and again as a reference point for measuring how you, your organization, agency, department, community collaboration, partnership, or artist collective is advancing toward your goals over time. Each year, Artist Thrive host a summit. This summer they will meet in Winston-Salem, NC. You can attend the summit in person or virtually. We strongly encourage you to do so. The summit is affordable and accessible.

  • The power of telling your community's story

    02/20/2024

    Small Town Big Arts has identified that one of the key qualities that leads to small community organizational longevity is that the art work produced reflects with specificity the community the organization serves. The identity of the organization is tightly entwined with the community itself (history, culture, landscape, and/or geographical). This month's episode shows you a path to this type of work, what it can look like, and the impact it can have in your community. We speak with playwright James McManus who specializes in developing community based "docudrama." We talk about his approach, his experiences, and how this type of work can tear down barriers, build bridges and enrich your small town.Learn more about Jim and his work here: https://newplayexchange.org/users/11130/james-mcmanus

    Live play podcast of the Morrow Project 4.0 Universe RPG game system. We use a lot of house rules instead of the standard rules in order to make the game more interesting to anyone listening by moving it along faster. The team is awakened before their demise more than 150 years later than expected and team up with a previous surviving project member and a local big game hunter to survive in the world and possibly make it a better place. Equipped with the latest in scientific and military technology when they were frozen in 2018, they have a technological advantage over the few survivors of World War III and the fall of modern society, but is it enough to survive the harsh world that awaits them.
