Application Deadline, ICE

The Institute for Cultural Entrepreneurship (ICE) is for mid-career history museum and other arts and culture professionals. ICE is designed to introduce business applications and principals of entrepreneurial thinking and the goal is to expand participants’ vision and leadership skills. ICE is a four-day experience that immerses participants in the world of nonprofit entrepreneurship training through case studies and skill-building exercises that generate creative ideas. The training sessions are catalysts that challenge traditional models of museum work in innovative and creative ways.

Applicants need to be comfortable engaging in rigorous leadership development experience, including full participation in Institute activities and, over the course of the year, parallel work on their entrepreneurial challenge. All applicants must be active in the museum or historic preservation field for a minimum of six years. Applicants should be in a position of institutional responsibility and have the capability to influence policy and effect change in their institution. Applications are due May 1, 2014.
