Viability 

Arts and culture organizations that can learn to grow their audiences and leverage these connections into long-term financial stability may learn that a successful pivot is often one that turns toward their neighbors. – Doug Borwick

Harvey said OK – he had nothing left to lose. – Joseph Horowitz
