Long Post Warning (BUT, I hope you'll read it!): I come from a long line of artists on both sides of my family. I remember having long debates in college about what makes a person an artist and what counts as art. It is far more than an oil painting hanging in a fancy art museum. I found this definition while pondering it this morning: An artist is anyone capable of conceptualizing an emotion, idea, or moment, or of more value, someone who can express themselves using their imagination. This definition begins to capture the concept but it still goes much deeper. For me it's a need to create, a way to express what is inside me in new and creative ways, and how I care for my mental health. Visual art comes in many forms, but there is so much more out there to appreciate and lose-and find-yourself in. Dance, music, theater, writing, designing and so much more. THIS is what I love about what we do at Arts Fort Worth. When artists have a sense of community, magic happens. Creativity breeds creativity. Inspiration ignites souls. Boundaries disappear and connections are made. We become better people. Artists of ALL kinds need connections to each other and to resources that help them remove obstacles and thrive. With a thriving and supported arts community we all benefit. Our economy flourishes (more on that another day!), we begin to open our eyes and hearts to new ideas, and we might even understand each other a little better. When you give to Arts Fort Worth financially, you promote, nurture, and support the arts in Fort Worth. Your gift can provide an artist an opportunity to exhibit their work, a playwright a chance to have their work produced, a small arts organization the chance to deliver more programs, a musician a path to performance, an actor an opportunity to express themselves on stage, and all of them a chance to connect to resources that can move them along their path. I hope all of this communicates how and why this has my heart. As the year comes to a close, please consider a gift of ANY size in support of this important work. My goal is to DOUBLE the number of supporters giving to Arts Fort Worth. If you are an artist, or love one (including me!), please consider a year-end gift. https://lnkd.in/gQJ4b6kX

Arts & cultural organizations are cultural keynotes that preserve history, inspire creativity, and educate the public, but getting members to come back year after year is a persisting challenge. One of the easiest ways to encourage membership renewals is to offer a loyalty rewards program such as PassPlay. On the blog this month, we talked about how PassPlay fits into the membership renewal strategy of arts & cultural organizations and a few other ways to provide more value to your organization.
