“What are we doing to cultivate new generations of arts activists—artists, arts managers and arts philanthropers?” This question—often asked and long massaged—has an equal number of answers to the individuals attempting to answer it. Under the broader umbrella of inspiring young people to make a difference—through the arts or otherwise—Do Something is an organization that is effectively answering that question with meaningful action.

Founded in 2003 by GRAMMY Award-winning songwriter and producer Dallas Austin, the Dallas Austin Foundation, Inc. (DAF) aims to transform the lives of young people by enriching their educational experiences through the use of music and film.

Danny Newman, who died last year (2007) at the age of eighty-eight, was a major post- World War II patron of the arts, but his contributions were not personal checks. Rather, they lay in helping arts companies—theaters, orchestras, dance groups, operas—build strong, committed audiences, providing the sound financial basis they needed to survive and flourish. His major tool was the promotion of subscriptions, a wide-ranging effort embodied in his book Subscribe Now! Building Arts Audiences through Dynamic Subscription Promotion.
