Cultural Entrepreneurs Building in Indianpolis.
INDIANAPOLIS STAR
By Brian Payne
INDIANAPOLIS - So what is a cultural entrepreneur? I believe it means someone who uses the arts and creativity to build community. I have always considered an "entrepreneur" as the artist of the business world. They are creative risk-takers who, if successful, create value for their community and often for society as a whole. A cultural entrepreneur's business is the community. Also, cultural entrepreneurs differ from others in the social or not-for-profit sectors by utilizing the arts and creative expression in building neighborhood connectedness and vitality. In this case, the arts are not the final product but the tool to engage neighbors and build a better quality of life. [link]
