It has become an assumption and a habit that complex arts activities require permanent organizations, corporate structures, and exclusive choices between for-profit or not-forprofit. But creative people are questioning that assumption, and breaking that habit. American University's Arts Management Fall Colloquium explores the options beyond traditional organizations for aligning creative people, money, and stuff over time.
