Our Services to... Arts, Entertainment and Museums

ODMD has served cultural institutions for many years and today counts a number of such organizations among its not-for-profit clients. These entities range from small performing arts groups to organizations with full season programs. The firm’s clients in this sector also include several museums ranging from large arts museums to science and historic centers and focused collections.

The firm’s involvement with the Cultural sector provides ODMD partners and staff an opportunity to identify problem areas specific to those organizations and to develop solutions targeted to those issues and needs.  ODMD professionals can assist with the accounting and controls for admissions and ticketing, gifts and donor restrictions and compensation issues surrounding artistic and other staff.  They can also provide guidance in developing stronger internal controls and minimizing operational risk.
