Orchestras, like any business or home, increasingly need to prepare for damage that can result from natural disasters or other threats that could occur. When it comes to natural disasters and public safety measures, the League and several other national arts organizations worked with Congress and federal agencies to ensure arts organizations have improved access to preparation resources and relief. Given all the scenarios that require more hands on deck to mitigate damage, assess threats, and forge ahead after a disruption happens, is your orchestra prepared?
