Hi All,
I've been lurking about this thread for a bit and have been reading Nancy Adler's lovely piece in AMLE. What strikes me is the irony that THE Academy published this after killing AcademyArts (the successor to the Art & Poetry section which Nancy cites) as it produced no revenue but incurred costs. The same fate befell The Fringe Café which too was on its way to becoming an Academy institution and partner to AcademyArts. Our last year in the Academy was in Honolulu in 2005.
Perhaps the time has come for the Art and Business Academy as Pierre has suggested. I'd sure come out of retirement to work to make that happen!
