Robert Lynch, President & CEO of Americans for the Arts, takes this ArtCast as an opportunity to thank all the tireless partners who helped make 2009 such a big year for Americans from the Arts. He reviews some of the key successes of 2009 and then discusses the 50th anniversary of Americans for the Arts, which begins in January 2010. He also focuses on this year's Annual Convention, which will be a Half-Century Summit in Baltimore, Maryland from June 25 - 27. For more information on the Summit, visit our website.
