THE URBAN ARTS LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT INTENSIVES
Ever wonder how to get in the door for an interview, navigate organizational politics, or help open doors to arts management jobs for others? The Urban Arts Leadership Program (UALP) of the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance is offering Professional Development Intensives March 14 and 15th and March 21 and 22nd that include a range of topics of critical concern to aspiring arts administrators, particularly those of color. Participation is free, but space is limited.
As each session is designed to carry-over from the previous day, participants must attend the two consecutive days of the intensive they register for. For a fuller experience, participants may sign up for both weekend intensives.
