Arts Management

Next Intake: April 2024 & September 2024

No other position has more to do with the creative, technical, and financial aspects of arts making than the manager. They work hand in hand with artistic directors, companies, sponsors and different networks. They develop the material, hire the writers, and find the buyers and financiers. They oversee performance development, castings, hiring of the crew, locations, distribution, festivals, and so much more. Ultimately, the arts manager, who is producer too, is the most involved with a project through every phase (from pre-production to production and post-production).

What is the role of Art management? Why is it needed?

Museums, art galleries, theatres and opera houses are all institutions. As such, they are legal entities that must meet legal, economic, and organizational requirements in order to exist and function in society. Arts Management's mission is to help both for-profit and non-profit arts institutions meet these requirements. 

 

Additionally, art institutions often face budgetary and technical constraints. For example, every arts institution must be economically viable, manage its staff, and raise funds. Therefore, there is a need for management.
