Arts Organizations at a Crossroads Toolkit

Managing Transitions and Preserving Assets

This free online resource from NCAPER was created to guide arts leaders through three significant transitions they are likely to face during their organization’s life: structural shifts; the loss of key staff/leadership; and preserving the artistic and physical assets they’ve created.

The National Coalition for Arts Preparedness and Emergency Response (NCAPER) has published The Arts Organizations at a Crossroads Toolkit: Managing Transitions and Preserving Assets, a free, online resource. The Toolkit compiles guidance and material from highly-regarded sources from across the country into a clear, easy-to-navigate web-based resource.

Jan Newcomb, executive director of NCAPER, said “The Arts Organizations at a Crossroads Toolkit: Managing Transitions and Preserving Assets was created to guide arts leaders through three significant transitions they are likely to face during their organization’s life: structural shifts; the loss of key staff/leadership; and recognizing that the artistic and physical assets they’ve created are worthy of protection and preservation.”

Each of these ‘crossroads’ is addressed in a section of the Toolkit.
