In this week's episode I share my top three takeaways from this year's Virginia Commission for the Arts (VCA) conference called ArtWorks. Those takeaways are:  There is no greater affirmation of freedom of expression than public funding for the arts. Donors give based on aspiration, even if it's not achievable. Small nonprofits have a lot of advantages over large organizations, specifically their ability to know their donors. I also shoutout the podcast subscribers from our Facebook group who are doing such great work in the nonprofit sector. I'm proud to be among them and appreciate their support. Be sure to check out their organizations if you're looking for someplace to volunteer or donate: Garth Newel Music Center, The Constellation Coalition, and VOYCE.
