    This event is free and open to the public. Arts organizations, artists and arts enthusiasts are encouraged to attend this fast-paced and engaging presentation, which covers the changing ways in which people are accessing and interacting with art and how the traditional arts may need to adapt to changing audience demands. The presentation will explore what it means to participate in the arts in contemporary society, from museum attendance to music downloading. Tepper analyzes key trends involving technology, audience demographics, religion and the rise of "do-it-yourself" participatory culture, drawing on findings from his recent book with Bill Ivey, "Engaging Art: The Next Great Transformation of America's Cultural Life". His research on arts engagement has been featured at more than 20 conferences and events across the country in the past two years.
