Jonathan Darr Consulting

A Trusted Leader and Collaborator for Culture, Education, Liberation, Social Justice, and Youth
I grew up at the intersections of the arts, the teachers union, business, and the wild idea that liberation, education, and joy are inseperable goals.

For more than 25 years, I've worked with arts, community, education, food, youth, and social movement organizations building ease, health, joy, and justice.

I bring broad and deep leadership experience in fundraising, strategy, culture building, management, and operations to the organizations and movements I work with.

I'm a writer, a coach, a problem solver, and a builder.

Perhaps most importantly, I beleive deeply in working together to create healthy, just, and effective organizations. I'm a student of belonging, connection, and community.

About Me
How Can I Help?
I specialize in offering tailored executive support to navigate your week and projects effortlessly. Unlike traditional coaching, I focus on your unique and specifc challenges and situations. Let me be your thought partner and advisor to help you tackle questions and stay aligned as a leader. I also offer services in finance, writing, planning, systems, and more, as needed.
I provide customized and recorded trainings for individuals and teams that are interactive and focused on solving challenges. I'm passionate about teaching and learning. Let's ensure you master finance, fundraising, board development, earned income strategies, program evaluation, and beyond.
I am a writer with decades of planning, process, fundraising, and media writing experience. I take contracts that are project based or work quarterly.
I have more than 20 years of experience helping artists develop statements, plans, and proposals. I've supported artists working on global public art projects, documentary films, installations, community arts education projects and more.
Over the years, I've handled many occasional, less regular, and even less expected needs an organization, campaign, or project might face. Here are just a few of the projects I've guided and completed:

Board Cultivation Plans
Board Evaluations
Board Needs Matrices
Board Meeting and Retreat Pland and Facilitation
Budget and Budget Process Development
Cash Flow Model and Workplan Development
Diversity Assurance, Engagement, and Leadership
Earned Income Strategy
Employee Search, Hiring, Evaluation
Event Planning, Systems, and Assessments
Finance and Finance Systems Evaluations
Logic Models and Program Plans
Succession Plans
Technology Audits and Systems Selections (RFP development, etc.)
Website and Social Media Optimization
Workplan Models, Project Technology, Management Tools
