In this episode, Aaron Dworkin sits down with Welz Kauffman, Ravinia Festival President and CEO - to discuss the process of evolution within arts organizations

Social entrepreneur, author and artist, Aaron Dworkin has this week released the fourth episode of the new arts video series: ‘Arts Engines.’

Produced in partnership with the Detroit Public Television, Ovation TV, American Public Media and The Violin Channel, each episode highlights the perspectives of the thought leaders and game-changers who are creating significant impact in the field of the arts.

In this episode, Aaron sits down with Welz Kauffman, Ravinia Festival President and CEO - to discuss the process of evolution within arts organizations.

“One way to get to know folks in an institution like Ravinia or an orchestra, opera company, dance company or theatre is to not use the words “mission statement” because everyone goes to sleep when you say it …  but to talk about … Who are we? Is who we are everything we want to be or could be? And, if not… how do we get there?” Welz has this week said.
