The Malpass Brothers Country
ARTSMARKET2013 Inspiration has brought you here. Take some with you when you leave. “I once sat near fiddler Mark O’Connor and bassist Edgar Meyer as the three of us watched Itzhak Perlman play an impeccable Tchaikovsky. I was so inspired, I played my violin into the wee hours of the morning, an eleven-year-old girl determined to one day play among the best.” Annie Dupre, The Annie Moses Band “The earliest inspiration I remember that steered me 1 toward the performing arts was watching my dad do soft-shoe steps in the garage while fixing the lawn mower.” Gene Medler, Founder, NC Youth Tap Ensemble “When I was a kid, I always wanted to live in Hollywood, travel on airplanes, stay in hotels and be met at an airport with my name on a sign.” James Galea WELCOME Welcome to ArtsMarket 2013! What began as a statewide conference in 2000 has blossomed into a world-class event drawing hundreds of performing arts professionals from more than 20 states, plus parts of Canada. This growth is due in large part to you, as you have recruited your colleagues over the years by sharing stories of the quality facilities and showcasing acts at ArtsMarket, the pervasive spirit of collegiality among participants, and the ample opportunities for learning and professional growth. Dare I say, ArtsMarket is a bit like a mullet hairdo – business in the front, party in the back. While the primary goal of ArtsMarket is to connect industry professionals to inspire business, we also strive to create a friendly, fun environment in which individuals can drop their guards, interact as equals, and build genuine and lasting relationships.
