[quote=Anonymous]The WaPo had an article on this, noting that people complain when orchestras close, but those same people don't actually go see the orchestra, or even read reviews of their music. People like the idea of having a symphony, but they don't support it. It's like people complaining that indie bookstores are closing, when they never buy books there (but sometimes use the bookstore to browse and then buy stuff on Amazon). If people want arts organizations to exist, they really should put their money and their time where their mouths are. How many people lamenting the loss of the NPO ever saw a performance? [/quote]
