"Sustainability" is the word on everyone’s lips these days, but what does it really mean, and how can cultural institutions make it work for them? Join us to explore real-life, practical ideas for making your institution more financially, environmentally, and socially sustainable. Working sessions will be led by Lyrasis instructors, with ample discussion and idea exchange among participants. Attendees will come away with a set of working documents pointing the way toward growing a more sustainable institution.
