The better prepared an organization is, the more quickly and effectively it can respond to emergencies and crises, re-open for performances and programs, and return to normal operations. *Event Preparedness: Active Shooters and Hostile Activity at Your Venues *: June 8, 2022 at 2pm ET *Description: *In recent years we have seen an increase in hostile attacks across all sectors, including events. These attacks have come in a variety of methods. Venues and companies have to be prepared for all scenarios and need to be able to react to all emergencies. This webinar will cover the types of attacks to prepare for, as well as the training you should consider for your venues and staff. Our instructor, Emma Stuart, also presents the ?Safety and Security for Performing Arts,? ?Road to Recovery: Performing Arts During COVID,? and the ?Pandemic Response for Performing Arts Organizations? webinars for the PAR project. *Instructor:* Emma Stuart *Disaster Response for Performing Arts Organizations *: June 21, 2022 at 2pm ET *Description: *Emergency response can be a daunting prospect for performing arts organizations. This webinar will lay out the basic tenets of responding to an emergency including support organizations, working with vendors, and helpful resources for organization and planning. There will also be a brief introduction to the Incident Command System so that performing arts centers can work more seamlessly with their local first responders. *Instructor: *Donia Conn *Crisis Communication and Reputation Management for Performing Arts Organizations *: June 22, 2022 at 2pm ET *Description: **You serve on the staff of a local performing arts organization. A press release was tweeted from a local environmental group stating that your theatre?s plumbing system is leaching untreated waste into the community?s waterway. While the press release is inaccurate, season ticket holders and donors are demanding answers. And, the organization?s Twitter handle is blowing up. You have an interview with the editor of the state newspaper in five minutes. What do you say? What do you do?* As professionals rise through the ranks, they will face issues that thrust them into the spotlight and threaten organizational reputation. A recent study found that 9 in 10 business leaders (94%) admit that the executives in their organizations need more training in core communication disciplines, such as reputation management and strategic communication. Are you prepared? This class reviews elements of strategic communication that are essential before, during and after crisis events. It examines how your organization can best prepare to respond to crisis and restore organizational reputation. *Instructor: * Kathleen Donohue Rennie More information and registration details about these webinars may be found on the PAR website at https://performingartsreadiness.org/webinars/ .

How do collecting institutions preserve evidence of an ever-changing natural world? And how does a changing world and climate impact those preservation efforts? Conference topics will address actions, responsibilities, and outcomes in the care of collections through a holistic lens, including documentation of the natural environment now and in the future, and the role cultural organizations have to play in advancing sustainability efforts. CCAHA's aim is to convene experts in the field of conservation, collections care, environmental science and more, to offer perspectives on the imminent impact of their work on preservation practice. CCAHA is seeking proposals from the community of sessions that highlight a project, initiative, or practice exemplifying the challenges and opportunities of documenting the natural world amidst a climate crisis. How has your institutional or professional approach to this work impacted the practice of preservation, conservation treatment, exhibit design, or documentation within a framework of sustainability? Presentation topics may include, but are not limited to: * The importance of not depleting natural resources while caring for collections * Measuring the impact of storage solutions on collections of the natural world * Caring for documentation of the natural world in field notes, herbaria, maps, living matter, etc. CCAHA's goal for this virtual event is to create a space where many diverse voices can share their perspectives and experiences related to these topics. We encourage proposals from speakers that represent diverse backgrounds and of sessions that address diverse/non-traditional collections and approaches to their care. These sessions will be 30 minutes each, including 20 minutes to present and 10 minutes of Q&A. All selected presenters will receive an honorarium payment for their participation and have access to technical support in advance of and during this virtual event. Use the form below to submit a proposal. You will be asked to provide either a 300-world abstract or short 3-to-5-minute video outlining your proposed session.

How do collecting institutions preserve evidence of an ever-changing natural world? And how does a changing world and climate impact those preservation efforts? Conference topics will address actions, responsibilities, and outcomes in the care of collections through a holistic lens, including documentation of the natural environment now and in the future, and the role cultural organizations have to play in advancing sustainability efforts. CCAHA's aim is to convene experts in the field of conservation, collections care, environmental science and more, to offer perspectives on the imminent impact of their work on preservation practice. CCAHA is seeking proposals from the community of sessions that highlight a project, initiative, or practice exemplifying the challenges and opportunities of documenting the natural world amidst a climate crisis. How has your institutional or professional approach to this work impacted the practice of preservation, conservation treatment, exhibit design, or documentation within a framework of sustainability? Presentation topics may include, but are not limited to: * The importance of not depleting natural resources while caring for collections * Measuring the impact of storage solutions on collections of the natural world * Caring for documentation of the natural world in field notes, herbaria, maps, living matter, etc. CCAHA's goal for this virtual event is to create a space where many diverse voices can share their perspectives and experiences related to these topics. We encourage proposals from speakers that represent diverse backgrounds and of sessions that address diverse/non-traditional collections and approaches to their care. These sessions will be 30 minutes each, including 20 minutes to present and 10 minutes of Q&A. All selected presenters will receive an honorarium payment for their participation and have access to technical support in advance of and during this virtual event. Use the form below to submit a proposal. You will be asked to provide either a 300-world abstract or short 3-to-5-minute video outlining your proposed session.

This is for you if you're excited about making, collecting, maintaining, or preserving digital art, augmented reality works, net art, or any other creative, digital work. Registration will be available in 2023. Looking forward to seeing you in 2023! ___ Maintenance Culture has been made possible in part by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities: Democracy demands wisdom.

Developed with help from nationally renowned experts in the collections management field, the CMPToolkit guides users step-by-step through the process to create a policy that is uniquely tailored to your collection and designed to meet professional, ethical and legal standards. Geared towards small and mid-level institutions without an active Collections Management Policy (CMP) in place, the CMPToolkit aims to simplify the process of developing a CMP and offer professional support for developing this crucial document. After more than a year in development, CCAHA is excited to announce that the Collections Management Policy Toolkit is officially live! Whether your institution is just starting the process of building a CMP or doesn't quite know how to start, the CMPToolkit is here to help! Visit the CMPToolkit website to... ? * Learn more about Collection Management Policies and how they can benefit your organization * Review the kind of information you'll need to begin building your own policy * Find a trove of Collections Management resources to support you through this process * Create a free account and start building your Collections Management Policy today! We hope the CMPToolkit can be an important resource for the collections community and can?t wait to hear how organizations across the country make use of this tool. To share your experience with the CMPToolkit or with any questions, please contact us at info@cmptoolkit.org.
