FROM THE NEWS
Reading scores of news stories about the arts and the pandemic from newspapers, magazines, on-line media and various reports from around the world can be overwhelming. But take a step back every week, and understandable narratives start to emerge: when venues will re-open; what will be presented -- and how; the shifting attitudes of audiences; issues of health and safety; the on-line practices that have proved productive; how government is helping (or not); and many more threads that gradually add up to a new fabric for the future. I hope you find the information useful.
