Alan Harrison is the author of the Scene Change book series, and has worked for 30 years in the nonprofits arts sector.
Alan begins his book series with the first Scene Change book emphasizing the importance of community impact in their missions. The next book speaks to the role of boards of directors in this mission work, and now there is Scene Change 3, with stories of nonprofit arts organizations which can show their impact in community.
Alan says art is essential for human beings, and artists are magical in their creation, but charities add another layer. He goes on to emphasize the need for metrics of success for nonprofits that goes beyond just the production of art and public participation through things like ticket sales. Scene Change 3 contains examples to help charities focus on their changes in community. Read more from Alan at the Arts Journal blog.
