Lucinda Lavelli Business of the Arts Fund
Fund
Purpose
This fund is dedicated to enhancing awareness of business and entrepreneurship skills within the arts, thereby deepening students' understanding of this vital aspect of the field. The fund rotates annually among the college’s degree-granting units, but units may request a change in the rotation sequence at the discretion of the unit director, particularly in cases of unique opportunities or collaborations with other campus entities, such as the Harn Museum, University of Florida Performing Arts, or other museums and centers. If a unit has unused funds they stay with that unit for further use in the next year. The fund supports a diverse range of activities, including but not limited to guest speakers, master classes, residencies, campus conferences, workshops, and the production of podcasts or videos to enrich the college curriculum. Additionally, it can be utilized to enhance ongoing events. The overarching goal is to maximize the fund's impact through strategic application. The director of the recipient unit will submit a summary of the event(s) to the Dean who will also send a copy to Lucinda Lavelli.
