AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

The Emerging Leaders Council extends a call for interested bloggers for the upcoming Emerging Leaders Blog Salon for the Americans for the Arts ArtsBlog. The Salon will take place from April 15 through April 19 and will consist of roughly 20 blog posts responding to the following prompt:

"What would make where you live a better place or bring it to the next level?"

Don't know what the ArtBlog is? Not quite sure what a blog salon entails? ARTSblog holds week-long Blog Salons, a series of posts by guest bloggers, that focus on an overarching theme within an area of our work. This is a link to last year's blog:
