They also visited incredible establishments like , , and the Arnoff Center for the Arts. On top of this all, they had the chance to preview an original work from ’s “Black Opera” series.

It’s moments like these that remind us how special our industry is. Whether it was the small conversations at lunch or card games with strangers who became friends, the arts foster community, even for the individuals leading the efforts.

Huge thank-you to the for planning and stewarding such a fulfilling event. We can’t wait to come back!

Listen to Confluence team member Megan explain how diverse a marketing campaign can be when using more than one tool...

Oftentimes, people assume marketing is only a paid effort, but there are more options than you think, especially when you're working with a small budget.

Although arts organization budgets are small, your marketing should not be an afterthought.

If you often find yourself going over budget, there are ways to reallocate your efforts while still prioritizing communication.

Artists are good marketers 🎭✨

Creatives have a deep-rooted sense of what their audiences need, and that’s imperative to marketing a product, service, or show 🎯

So, why do arts leaders have such a hard time marketing? 🤔

Our new blog, "Arts Leaders Are Not Bad at Marketing — They’re Overwhelmed," explores how it's not a skill issue, but a lack of capacity and time to strategize and do good work ⏳

Arts leaders aren’t bad at marketing — they’re overwhelmed 💭

Most are incredible storytellers 🎭✨ but when you’re juggling programming, fundraising, ops, and everything in between, marketing becomes what’s left over ⏳

It’s not a skill issue. It’s a capacity issue.

Without space for strategy + consistency, even strong storytelling gets lost in the noise 📣

Marketing isn’t the problem. Bandwidth is.

Playbill drop 🎭

Lately, we’ve been busy doing what we love most: showing up for the arts in our own communities.

From Columbus stages to NYC and Buffalo, our team has been out supporting local performances 🎟️
(and yes, collecting a few playbills along the way).

Although we strategize and talk about the arts, we also engage, experience, and sit in the audience too 🎭

Supporting local theater isn’t just part of our work, it’s part of who we are ❤️

What are you trying to fix right now? Visibility, messaging, or strategy?

Most teams default to “we just need more marketing.”

But that’s not always where the problem starts.

We just dropped a new blog breaking down how to figure out what’s actually off before you add more to your plate.

Curious where your gaps might be?

Confluence team members Mel and Liv had the chance to attend our client behind-the-scenes event for their upcoming production, Flannel: A 90s Rock Musical.

It was an incredible night getting a first look at the creative process, and we’re already looking forward to seeing the full production come to life on stage from May 28 through September 6. 🎸
