Ooops

Well apparently as my windows shifted around during my recent attempts to enhance my web feed links, I accidentally deleted part of the right hand sidebar. I have tried to restore and also improve that sidebar, but I am pretty sure some blogs that I added after creating a back up copy have gotten left out. I have a good sense of what has been omitted but I am going to go back through the last 6-12 months of posts to double check and perhaps pick up a couple more that should be included.

If I am missing your blog and listed it before, let me know! Sorry about making you disappear.

About Joe Patti

I have been writing Butts in the Seats (BitS) on topics of arts and cultural administration since 2004 (yikes!). Given the ever evolving concerns facing the sector, I have yet to exhaust the available subject matter. In addition to BitS, I am a founding contributor to the ArtsHacker (artshacker.com) website where I focus on topics related to boards, law, governance, policy and practice.

I am also an evangelist for the effort to Build Public Will For Arts and Culture being helmed by Arts Midwest and the Metropolitan Group. (http://www.creatingconnection.org/about/)

My most recent role was as Executive Director of the Grand Opera House in Macon, GA.

Among the things I am most proud are having produced an opera in the Hawaiian language and a dance drama about Hawaii's snow goddess Poli'ahu while working as a Theater Manager in Hawaii. Though there are many more highlights than there is space here to list.
