ORGANIZATION
Art After Next promotes the interaction of the arts with other fields, such as business and science, that provide a framework for everyday activities. The organization believes it's in the best interests of all professions to capitalize on their relationships with the arts. Arts partnerships are also in the public interest, and have the potential of making the arts an integral part of our social fabric. With this in mind, AFX conducts research, coordinates programs, and sponsors like-minded efforts. Original works and related resources compile a public archive. This site is one place where Art After Next presents articles and projects about the value of creative insight to diverse issues and pursuits.
