Continuous change and renewed challenges. Opportunity and uncertainty. These have distinguished the recent environment for cultural organizations and will continue to do so in the years ahead. Since its founding in 1983, Management Consultants for the Arts (MCA) has helped cultural organizations of all sizes and disciplines, throughout the United States, successfully deal with these complex issues. What sets MCA apart from other consultants? We are not simply in the business of doling out general management advice or of recruiting new leadership. We are in the business of understanding and serving the nation’s cultural community. This exclusive focus derives from the insight our staff has gained through many years of arts management experience – in organizations as diverse as museums, orchestras, public broadcasting stations, theatre and dance companies, and other performing and visual arts organizations in both the commercial and not-for-profit sectors.
