Art Education Fine Arts Music opera soccer community outreach Columbus Sold out venues, throngs of adoring and devoted fans, annoyingly high ticket prices; while these things might evoke thoughts of one’s favorite sports team, they could just as easily stir images of an arts organization. Although they are commonly thought of as contrary and/or mutually exclusive, sports and arts have a good deal in common. However, almost across the board, sports teams thrive while arts organizations struggle. This thesis serves as a pilot study into why this phenomenon occurs, and what information can be shared between the two fields for their mutual benefit. This study is focused on how the two fields go about making themselves part of their home community through community outreach programs and initiatives. By utilizing document analysis, two organizations are examined that serve niche markets of increasing popularity: Opera Columbus and the Columbus Crew. By looking at how these two groups have made themselves part of the fabric of Columbus, conclusions are arrived at with implications beyond the fields of soccer and opera and the city of Columbus. 2009-09-29 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1253554827 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1253554827 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
