Thrive Arts Conference

Thrive Arts Conference Hundreds of executive, marketing, and development professionals from arts organizations statewide will once again converge on Princeton University for our biennial June arts conference.

Produced in partnership with the Lewis Center for the Arts, and with support from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, Thrive has grown into the largest professional development event dedicated strictly to confronting the challenges and opportunities facing New Jersey's cultural community.

We look forward to welcoming the arts industry back to Thrive in 2024.

Actress, comedian, disability advocate and best-selling author Maysoon Zayid's keynote address for Thrive 2022, "Survival of the Unfittest," tackled everything from diversity to cats named Beyonce.

 

The Red Blanket Singers, a Native American performing arts group comprised mostly of citizens of the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation, opened Thrive 2022. Their champion dancers and singers entertained while simultaneously conveying the important history and meaning of their dances and songs — bringing authenticity to the conference's Land Acknowledgement.
