ATCA Connects session on nonprofit arts journalism

The American Theatre Critics Association’s Conference & Event committee will hold a virtual event on nonprofit arts journalism Tuesday, April 27, 2021 starting at 8 pm EDT / 5 pm PT.

As arts coverage continues to dwindle in daily newspapers and mainstream media — a situation worsened by COVID-19 — is nonprofit arts journalism the future of the field? A panel of editors and administrators of nonprofit journalism outlets from around the country will discuss various and innovative models, funding, starting a nonprofit, and finding board members.

Moderated by Mark Lowry, ATCA Executive Committee member and cofounder of TheaterJones in Dallas/Fort Worth, the panel includes: Laura Bruney, CEO of the Arts & Business Council of Miami, which runs Artburst MiamiScott Freeman, Executive Editor of ArtsATL in Atlanta; Alaina Johns, Editor-in-Chief of Broad Street Review in Philadelphia; Christina Rees, Editor-in-Chief of Glasstire, a visual art journalism outlet covering the entire state of Texas; and Kerry Reid, Theater and Dance Editor of Chicago Reader, a longtime Chicago institution that recently became a 501(c)(3).

This free ATCA event is part of a series designed for critics and by critics. Featuring ATCA members as panelists and moderators, the sessions are designed to be informal and geared toward working arts writers.
