    Sydney Symphony Orchestra on Creating a Culture of Collaboration

    Arts organizations thrive when teams stop operating in parallel and begin building together. Take it from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, which is wrapping its biggest season in over a decade. By creating shared goals across teams and building systems that encourage communication instead of competition, the Symphony has seen unprecedented audience growth in just a few short years. In this episode, Monica sits down with three leaders from across the organization—Director of Marketing Charles Buchanan, Director of Artistic Planning Melissa King, and Director of Learning & Engagement John Nolan—to explore how deeper collaboration has reshaped both internal culture and audience experience.  ----- LINKS Sydney Symphony Orchestra: https://www.sydneysymphony.com/  Emil Kang's The Reprise: https://emilkang.substack.com/

    Susan Magsamen, Co-Author of “Your Brain on Art”

    Susan Magsamen has spent her career arguing that creativity and aesthetic experiences are not luxuries, but biological necessities woven into how we heal, learn, and connect. A researcher, educator, and co-author of the New York Times bestseller Your Brain on Art, Susan has become one of the leading voices in the growing field of neuroaesthetics: the science of how the arts and sensory experiences shape the brain and body. Through her work with the International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins and the NeuroArts Blueprint Initiative, she has helped bridge the gap between scientific research and real-world practice in healthcare, education, and community life. In this episode, Susan reflects on the winding path that led her into this emerging field and explains what the latest research reveals about the profound impact of arts engagement on human wellbeing. She also explores how arts organizations can better communicate their value, why community-centered approaches matter, and what it will take to make neuroaesthetics a mainstream part of public policy in the years ahead. —— LINKS: Your Brain on Art: https://www.yourbrainonart.com/ International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins: https://www.artsandmindlab.org/ NeuroArts Blueprint Initiative: https://neuroartsblueprint.org/ Neuroarts Resource Center: https://www.neuroartsresourcecenter.com/home

    Jacob Jonas, Dancer, Choreographer, and Founder of Films.Dance

    Jacob Jonas consistently questions who dance is for, where it belongs, and how it can be sustained.  From his early days as a street performer on Venice Beach to founding his own company at just 21, his work reflects a conviction that art must evolve alongside audiences. That perspective has shaped his drive to build new models for the field just as much as it has informed his creative practice. In this episode, Jacob discusses expanding access to dance beyond traditional ticketed spaces, and bringing movement to the screen through his global platform Films.Dance. He also reflects on the gaps he sees across the dance ecosystem—from outdated funding models to legacy approaches to marketing—where emerging leaders have opportunities to rethink the future of the field.

    Giorgia Lupi, Partner at Pentagram

    Giorgia Lupi has built a career at the intersection of design, storytelling, and information, treating data not as cold fact but as something deeply human.  From organizing buttons in her grandmother’s tailor shop in Italy to becoming a partner at Pentagram, her work consistently challenges the idea that analysis and artistry exist in separate worlds.  In this episode, Giorgia reflects on her path from architecture to information design, and unpacks her philosophy of data humanism: an approach that embraces subjectivity, emotion, and storytelling as essential to how we understand data. She also talks about her work in branding, including Capacity’s recent rebrand, and what it means to design in a world increasingly shaped by AI. --- LINKS Giorgia Lupi: https://giorgialupi.com/  Pentagram: https://www.pentagram.com/  Letterform Online Archive: https://oa.letterformarchive.org/

    Ruth Hartt, Founder of Cindr

    What's the root of the audience growth problem? Relevance. Few people understand that better than Ruth Hartt. Ruth has built a career at the intersection of performance and business innovation, moving from a 17-year career as a professional opera singer to advising cultural organizations on how to rethink audience engagement. Drawing on her work at the Clayton Christensen Institute and her deep grounding in the arts, Ruth challenges long-held assumptions about how and why people connect with cultural experiences. In this episode, Ruth unpacks the limitations of traditional, product-centered marketing and makes the case for a more human, need-based approach. Along the way, she reflects on her own journey from the stage to strategy, and what it means to build a more responsive, relevant future for the arts. —— LINKS: Cindr: https://cindr.co/ Cindr Webinar: https://cindr.co/webinar Culture for Hire: https://www.cultureforhire.com/ Christensen Institute: https://www.christenseninstitute.org/

    Brent Reidy, Andrew W. Mellon Director of the Research Libraries at The New York Public Library

    Libraries are often thought of as quiet repositories. But at their best, they are living, evolving spaces where culture is preserved, interpreted, and reimagined. Brent Reidy serves as the Andrew W. Mellon Director of the Research Libraries at The New York Public Library—one of the most expansive and dynamic cultural collections in the world. With a career that spans musicology, consulting with arts institutions, and nearly a decade at NYPL, Brent brings a unique perspective on how libraries function not just as archives, but as active participants in the cultural ecosystem. In this episode, Brent reflects on what it takes to engage new audiences; how digitization efforts intersect with access and institutional mission; and how preserving the past can help shape a more inclusive and imaginative future for the arts. ----- LINKS: The New York Public Library: https://www.nypl.org/  The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts: https://www.nypl.org/locations/lpa  StoryCorps Archive: https://archive.storycorps.org/

    Ashley Hufford, Content Creator and Theater Influencer

    The beauty of theater isn’t just what happens on stage. It’s the community that forms around it. And increasingly, that community is being built online.  Ashley Hufford is part of a growing group of creators leading that shift. A constant presence across New York’s theater scene and on social media, she has built an audience of more than 100,000 followers who turn to her not for theater criticism, but for an invitation to try something new. What began as a pandemic-era hobby of posting about shows has grown into a kind of cultural bridge, connecting productions with new and younger audiences. In this episode, Ashley reflects on her path from sports media to political storytelling to theater influencing; what she’s learned about sharing stories that resonate; the evolving role of influencers in the theater ecosystem; and how the arts industry can rethink accessibility and audience-building for the future. ——— LINKS: Ashley Huffed: https://www.ashleyhufford.com/ The New York Public Library: https://www.nypl.org/ The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts: https://www.nypl.org/locations/lpa
