Former National Endowment for the Arts leaders - Harvard Loeb Fellow Jen Hughes,  Kennedy School Program Director Jenn Chang, and Asian American Ballet Project Founder Elizabeth Mochizuki - speak to WBUR's Tania Ralli about the future of arts funding amid efforts to defund the agency and bold new models to sustain artists and cultural institutions.   This conversation was a part of The WBUR Festival (2026), where thousands of attendees descend on Boston each year to hear movers, makers, and other fascinating people in conversation with each other and with WBUR.
