Navigating the Age of AI
An Executive Roundtable for Arts Leaders in Baltimore
A small, in-person, leadership-only conversation for senior arts leaders navigating the strategic, creative, and organizational implications of AI.
About the Roundtable
Capacity is convening a series of in-person executive roundtables for senior leaders in arts and cultural organizations to create space for candid, peer-driven conversation about the accelerating impact of AI.
Over the past two years, we’ve been working closely with arts leaders as they wrestle with what generative AI means for their organizations—what to try, what to avoid, what feels promising, and what feels genuinely unsettling. These sessions are designed to help leaders step back from day-to-day execution and make sense of what’s changing, together.
This is not a presentation or a sales session. It’s a facilitated discussion shaped by the experiences, questions, and concerns in the room.
Who Should Attend
This roundtable is designed for:
– Artistic Directors
– Executive Directors
– CEOs and Presidents
– CFOs, CMOs, and senior C-suite leaders
Attendance is limited to senior leadership to ensure a focused, confidential conversation among peers.
What to Expect
– A 90-minute, in-person executive discussion
– A confidential, leadership-only environment
– Peer-to-peer conversation facilitated by senior Capacity leaders
– Catered lunch
Insight into:
– How arts organizations are using AI today
– Common tensions, risks, and opportunities we’re seeing across the field
– What leaders are anticipating in 2026 and beyond
