New Mission and Priorities

The Arts of Life artists, staff, and board have approved and adopted a new mission statement to guide the studio’s priorities, programs, and partnerships into the future. Since it’s inception, the studio’s focus has been bringing creatives from all backgrounds together to learn from each other and grow both collectively and individually. Building on the success of their seventeen years, The Arts of Life will continue to strengthen the creative community through leadership and collaboration.  Please take a look at our video to learn more about The Arts of Life’s new mission: [[{“fid”:”12601″,”view_mode”:”media_original”,”fields”:{“format”:”media_original”},”type”:”media”,”link_text”:”The Arts of Life Mission Statement”,”attributes”:{“class”:”file media-element file-media-original”}}]] As we look to the future of The Arts of Life, our Executive Board has set three strategic priorities. 1 – Reduce our financial dependency on the State of Illinois.2 – Improve our employee and staff success and sustainability. 3 – Grow the awareness, presence, and reputation of our artists and organization.As we create our strategy to achieve these goals, it is important that we include the ideas and priorities of our entire Arts of Life community.  We hope you’ll take a few minutes to offer your thoughts and contributions in this brief survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CMCD9G3Thank you for your time and continued support of The Arts of Life!With Gratitude,Your Friends at The Arts of Life
