Leveraging Change:
Increasing Access to Rural Arts Education
What is Leveraging Change?
Our long-term goal
is to increase
access to arts
education in rural
areas.
What makes the Berkshires like
other rural areas?
● Shrinking population
● Small schools
● Economic
disadvantages
● Geographic barriers
What distinguishes the
Berkshires?
● Significant cultural
assets
● Higher education
institutions
● Tourism industry
Research:
Original Conception to New Reality
•Research to identify
promising practices
and exemplars
•Scan of literature
•Shift to interviews with
key stakeholders
PROJECTSTEP1:

Convening April 2015
10/13/16 Breakout Session III: The Role of Rural Education and Knowledge Systems
Issues for Arts Education Access
in the Berkshires
Insufficient:
• communication
mechanisms
• regional focused
collaboration
• Public
transportation
Themes from the Literature/Interviews
Challenges
• Geographic distance (getting from place to place for opportunities, for
training, for access to programs)
• Poverty and lack of economic opportunity
• Lack of access to funders/funding
• Lack of public transportation
• Out migration of youth
• Out migration of industry
• Technology challenges (lack of broadband)
Assets
• Rural Areas also have assets that set them apart from more urban areas
• Strong relationships
• Space
• Environmental beauty and features
• Unique contextual features
Promising Practices
The creation of networks
• Collective Impact focused
• Built on local contexts (cultural, etc.)
• Cross sector collaboration
• Innovative backbone organizations (higher education, business, state
agencies, collectives)
• Professional development as a method of relationship and capacity building
• Development of leadership as a catalysts
• Strong communication mechanisms to relevance
Build on rural assets
• Environmental features
• Strong relationships
• Cultural context
• ,Area offerings
Promote the facility and comfort with collecting and analyzing data
Use of Data
• Understand trends
• Advocate
• Engaging multiple stakeholders in reviewing, understanding data
Rethinking the backbone organization
in rural areas:
• Identifying single organizations with capacity to serve in this role can be
challenging
• Networks need to share the work and make the commitment to
“collaboration of a different kind”
• Collaborating backbone partners Should emerge from the specific context

Theoretical
Frames
• Design Thinking
• Collective Impact
• Arts partnership stages
of development
• Asset-based arts
development
We have invited a select group of participants, including yourself, to explore cross-sector collaboration as a
tool for increasing access to arts education in rural Berkshire County. Representatives of arts
organizations, educational districts, transportation, business, and social services in the Berkshires have
been invited to participate in this cross-sector exploration based on their experience with rural arts education
or commitment to the region.
We will tap your expertise to:
• activate strategies and develop a plan of action to leverage cross-sector approaches at the district and
regional levels in the Berkshires.
• invite and engage multiple perspectives to understand the opportunities/challenges for advancing arts
education in rural Berkshire County
• identify a variety of mechanisms for creating greater access to arts education in the rural Berkshires.
