SURPRISING FINDINGS IN THREE NEW NEA REPORTS ON THE
ARTS
Exploration into who participates and why, as
well as the arts as an economic engine
Three reports from
the National Endowment for the Arts reveal new findings about the impact of
arts and cultural industries on GDP, as well as how and why Americans
participate in certain arts activities. The data for the three reports is all
from 2012, so for the first time the NEA can show a comprehensive view of a
single year in the life of the arts and cultural sector from three different
angles: supply, demand, and motivations for consumer behavior. The new
information will help arts providers and others more effectively understand and
develop strategies to engage individuals and communities in the arts.
