How are arts organizations and publications using blogs, Twitter and Facebook to connect with their communities?

I’m looking forward to this discussion. Will there be an official twitter hashtag for peeps to use for tweeting about it?
Yep! It is #artsocialmedia. We will also have a screen behind the panelists displaying tweets with the #artsocialmedia hashtag. Look forward to seeing you there!
