The Role of Local Arts Agencies in a Cultural Policy Setting
Cheryl Hughes, Senior Director of Strategic Initiatives and Centennial Planning at the Chicago Community Trust, presents the results of her new study of the support for arts and culture at the municipal level.
Careers in the Cultural Sector
Students interested in careers in the cultural sector were invited to an informal discussion with two cultural practitioners: Cheryl Hughes, former Executive Director of Science Chicago and Director of Program Development for the City of Chicago Mayor's Office of Special Events, and Sarah Lee, Harris School Ph.D. Candidate and Senior Associate for Museums at SloverLinett Strategies. This was the first in a continuing workshop discussion series to link students with cultural practitioners in Chicago.
