	<title>The Center for Sustainable Practice in the Arts</title>
	<link>http://www.sustainablepractice.org</link>
	<description>The CSPA provides a network of resources to arts organizations, which enables them to be ecologically and economically sustainable while maintaining artistic excellence. We support the infrastructure of this network by supplying artists with the information, education and intellectual community they need to make the best choices for their sustainability. We do this through three independent programs: The CSPA Online Resource Guide, annual CSPA convergence and the CSPA Institute’s curriculum building.  We extend these efforts with key partnerships: A producing partnership with Texas Performance Labs and a periodical partnership with Mammut Magazine. Under the umbrella of the CSPA, each program and partnership uses different tactics with their own mission to create a comprehensive and cooperative synthesis in artistic sustainability.</description>
