I am always impressed to listen and learn from @GrinnellCollege students. Hosted the Rosenfield Program at @Americans4Arts where we discussed the economics of the arts, the ways the arts play a role in one’s lives and the effect of artificial intelligence on the arts.

Enjoyed listening to US @SecCardona of Education at the #MayorsDC24 meeting where he called out theatre and choir in high school as co-curricular (not extra curricular) and it is those things which help keep kids involved and in school. @Americans4Arts @usmayors @usedgov
