Episode 7: “The Brains”

All successful not-for-profits need leadership. In this episode we hear from the Executive Director and Office Manager for ETC about the nature of leadership, unknown responsibilities these jobs entail,  and how a background in arts as well as communications and math help support the ongoing success of an arts non-profit. Recorded in the Echo office during a work day while a kids Summer Camp is occurring in the theater adjacent to the office.

"The Echo Theater, an old silent movie house in Portland, OR, is home to a non-profit arts and education organization called the Echo Theater Company. ETC is a performing arts school with a focus on circus arts, collaboration and inclusivity. Through interviews, soundscapes, rap and reportage, listeners learn about the history and philosophy of this unique organization,and what it has to teach us about each other and ourselves."
