Marketing and programming in the arts serve the purpose of cultivating the relationship between the audiences and arts organisations. In combination, both functions are executed with the purpose of not only investing in the community culturally but also to garner external interest and media attention. In modern times, performing arts projects have become an important method of developing the community and are executed with the expectation that they will have a positive and measurable impact on society. In turn, small and large arts organisations in their marketing and programming efforts aim to diversify their audiences to achieve their goals of social purpose, financial sustainability and creativity.
According to the Chartered Institute of Marketing, the official academic definition of marketing, “is the management process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying customer requirements profitably.” (CIM, 2016) Traditional marketing in the arts usually involves generating attention and income for a little known artist and educating or entertaining the audience in return. However audience 2.0, ironically ushered in with web 2.0, craves more interaction and participation. Traditional marketers in the arts typically tend to employ various marketing strategies to ensure they meet their targets. Many of these strategies and based upon established fundamental theories.

Race and racism have been around since mankind made its first steps on the planet and it has brought upon violence, submissiveness, cruelty, and sexism into the world. A great representation of these themes and issues was brought by LeRoi Jones, who wrote “The Dutchman”. The play itself is a great representation of the relationships of races in America during the 60’s and can even been connected to today’s society. The Dutchman mainly focuses on the black-white relationship but can also be drawn to other cultures and races. I, myself, can also relate to what LeRoi Jones wrote in one way or another. Being a different culture and not being accepted was the first façade of America that I got
In the Travel and Tourism Industry, the experience tends to be interactive; therefore attractions need a great amount of marketing by organisations in order to encourage people to believe that their attraction is the one they should choose to visit. For example in my personal opinion, I feel that the Science Museum in London tends to provide better interactive and attractive marketing than that of the Victoria and Albert Museum. The difference in marketing activities could be due to the fact of the market segmentation, and that the Science Museum is marketed at the family segmentation group, where as the V&A Museum would tend to be marketed towards the A and B socio-economic groups, which would consist of middle aged, middle classed citizens. Therefore marketing focuses upon finding the relevant customers to market goods and services

This article was one of the first to examine the rise of arts management and to solidify its place as an independent discipline. The researchers cited the emergence of the International Journal of Arts Management (Est 1998) and the International Association for Arts and Cultural Management (Est 1991) as major advancements in the discipline’s quest for legitimacy. Between 1979 and 1996 the number of articles about Arts Management tripled and continued to multiply exponentially as the 21st century dawned.

Marketing and advertising go hand in hand with each other when it comes to selling a new product. Marketing involves preparing the product for the marketplace. The firm must first identify the potential customers and what are they looking to get from the product or the service.

Spreading the word about what the product has to offer to the customers. Marketing is the way the company convinces the potential buyers that the company has the right product and adverting is how you communicate to them the existence of that product.
The birth of ‘Marketing’ happened centuries ago where vendors in ancient times tried to seduce the oncoming customer by chanting in loud noises and catering to the customer needs by negotiation of price or assumption of what they might need aside from what they were actually looking for. Over the years, this process has been refined, given a
Marketing is not just about buying, selling, or advertising. It is about exchanging value to meet the needs of stakeholders.
