Arts Weekly | Feb. 25-March 3
Let’s wrap up the month with a bang! From the impact of the government shutdown on the arts to networking and development tips, our Reads section provides a balance of insight and direction. And if you want to put your networking into practice, check out Go as well as a new show at one of our favorite spots, the Roger Smith Hotel. In Apply, now is the time to build the future we want for NYC culture- nominate a panelist for the city’s cultural development fund plus a general round up of opportunities in the city. Onwards, YPA!
