| NEW ways that art is | CREATED, PRESENTED, and EXPERIENCED |
| Require NEW ways that art is | SUPPORTED, FUNDED, and NURTURED |

| In a NEW day when collaborative effort, exemplary practice, and responsive adaptability are the NEW tools for innovation and survival. | |
| A NEW conference in a NEW OLD city: Welcome to Philadelphia, the birthplace of American democracy. This center of creativity and innovation, and cultural crossroads, will provide the people, resources, and forum for a candid exchange of NEW ideas, research, vision, and practices. | |
| Organized arts philanthropy is a relatively NEW field. (What if we’re doing it all wrong?) Reinvention, innovation, and new approaches will take bold thinking, risk taking, and imagination. Are you up for all this? Join us in Philadelphia! | |
