Michael Spalter: An Idea That is Finally Catching On: Artists Don't Have to Starve

Michael Spalter (Chair, Board of Trustees, RISD) spoke at the 2014 Nantucket Project.
About The Nantucket Project
The Nantucket Project is one of the world’s great gatherings, each year hosting preeminent thinkers, leaders and innovators in a wide range of fields.
We focus on the intersection of art and commerce - one fueled by passion, the other by reason. In every organization - whether it’s a business, a philanthropy or a creative endeavor - those two forces jostle to achieve the right balance.
In the process, values are determined. We believe TNP is the only event of its kind that rigorously examines those values.

I love this talk-moved me to tears as Michael Spalter described who I am and my life never having met me. I so often think I talk to deaf ears. More please!
