A friend recently shared this great website with me: www.artsjournal.com. It is a compendium of arts and culture-related information; you can sign up for daily or weekly updates. The lead story today, for example, is from the NY Times 1/25/07: “NY to ‘Depoliticize’ Arts Funding“; there is a daily video feature, listings for interesting conferences, notice of a new MFA program offering in Public Art from USC, and more. This site gathers together a wealth of valuable information, doing the research for us. Check it out!
