SUMMARY:From Open Data to Data Commons: Building Civic Infrastructure for the Culture and Arts Sector
DESCRIPTION:What if the problem isn’t a lack of data\, but a lack of infrastructure to share and reuse it responsibly over time? \nWhen working with data\, we often treat collection as the end of the story—focusing on efficient ways to acquire and store it—while neglecting the data’s longer life: making it findable\, interpretable\, re-usable\, and actionable beyond its original purpose. Responsible reuse depends not just on technical infrastructure but also on shared practice. \nWith the Culture Data Commons as a starting point\, join us in conversation with Stefaan Verhulst\, co-founder of the GovLab and The Data Tank\, on responsible data reuse and the opportunities of data stewardship through collective practices and participatory governance. \nOrganized by the Culture & Arts Policy Institute and hosted by BRIC\, this session\, part of Open Data Week 2026\,  invites cultural leaders\, researchers\, technologists\, policymakers\, and funders to rethink data governance in the arts and to consider how collective data infrastructure can transform information into shared power.  \nRSVP here \nABOUT THE CULTURE DATA COMMONS\nDeveloped by the Culture & Arts Policy Institute\, the Culture Data Commons (The Commons) is a collectively stewarded shared data space for the culture and arts sector. It brings together datasets\, tools\, and governance practices to enable organizations to share\, access\, and reuse information responsibly. More than a portal\, it is a collaborative framework that centers participation\, transparency\, and collective decision-making in how culture data is stewarded and applied.

SUMMARY:Open Data 101 for Culture and Arts
DESCRIPTION:Led by the Culture & Arts Policy Institute\, this webinar introduces the core concepts\, practices\, and public benefits of open data through the lens of the culture and arts sector. It explains what “open data” actually means\, how it differs from internal or private data\, and why it matters for organizations seeking to understand their impact\, advocate for resources\, or strengthen transparency. Participants will learn about basic standards\, common tools\, and examples of how open data is used in the United States and internationally to inform policy and support cultural ecosystems. \nThe goal is to give participants the confidence and foundational knowledge needed to engage meaningfully in open data practices and to understand the value of joining broader open-data efforts such as the Institute’s Cultural Data Commons\, a community-governed open data infrastructure designed to make cultural-sector information accessible\, ethical\, and equity-centered for artists\, cultural workers\, organizations\, and public agencies.
