Board Presentation - MAC 2014
Recently I presented to our Board of Trustees an overview of the McAninch Arts Center. This was intended to be a short and concise view of the MAC: its history, operation and our plans for the future when we come out of our present reorganization. As much as I vainly dislike how I appear on video (remember the camera and the 10 pound rule), I think these 15 minutes are of value if you wish to better understand the MAC. If you have a question or comment - please let us know.

Great presentation.
ReplyDeleteI really can't wait for the MAC to reopen and start providing the kinds of artistic events that makes me love COD so much!
Thanks. We've started the 365 day count down until we start the move back in. See you in April 2014.

Why is the Arts Center now being mandated to operate without auxiliary funding from the College, but the professional restaurant, wine cellar, and homeland security (all with no academic value) are allowed to lose millions?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments.
DeleteAll of the College's auxiliary operations, the big three being WDCB, The MAC and Waterleaf, are being asked to decrease our end of year deficits. Each operation cost the College last year $500,000 plus to support for a total of $1.6 million. The College has stated for the record that they are committed to having and supporting all three operations because all have value to the campus and the community. Our charge going forward is to continue to present great cultural events but close the deficits through increases in contrinuted revenue and smart fiscal management.
That's what we plan to do.
