What's a Collegium?
collegium: 'A group whose members pursue shared goals while working within a framework of mutual trust and respect.'
The Bolz Center Collegium draws alumni, students, and friends from across the country to explore essential aspects of the field, identify streams of teaching and learning, and celebrate their collective efforts to advance the arts.
|

The road to resilient arts and cultural endeavors is increasingly more intersection than interstate. Nonprofits are bolstering their bottom lines through earned income. For-profits are building brand through compelling creative content. And the median is now bursting with evolving alternatives — from social venture to slow food to social network to low-profit corporation.
Join Bolz Center alumni, students, and special guests to explore this evolution from administration to enterprise, and to consider the role of the Bolz Center community in preparing the travelers and paving the way.

Nonesuch Records, New York, NY
Philip Bither, Senior Curator of Performing Arts
Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN
Moderated by Andrew Taylor
Brothers David and Philip Bither have both built careers connecting extroardinary artists with curious audiences. They just happen to have done so on opposite sides of the nonprofit/for-profit divide. Nonesuch Records has been among the most consistently eclectic labels since its founding in the 1960s. The Walker Arts Center's performance series has been a champion of new and ground-breaking artists for those same 50 years and more. In this conversation with Bolz Center Director Andrew Taylor, David and Philip will compare notes, war stories, and challenges from their for-profit, nonprofit, low-profit, and no-profit adventures in cultural enterprise. |
