Interview with Emily Toney, Director of Development for the GCAC

We created a website with a link to an application for artists to add themselves to a database if they were interested in connecting with businesses looking for artists. We had nearly 20 property management companies or businesses that we connected with our database. There are almost 200 artists who have added themselves. We worked with the Hines Company who manages the Huntington Center and utilized our database to hire artists.

My take:  

I love seeing artists create live. One of my favorite festivals was cancelled (Columbus Arts Festival). I know, I know they had virtual activities. But, to me it’s not the same. I love being able to interact with the artists.
