The role of the arts in state and regional economic and social life


A number of studies have sought to estimate the economic impact of the arts and culture field on state and regional economies. Some have used NCCS Form 990 data.

See, for example, the New England Foundation for the Arts analysis of the New England Cultural Economy: http://www.nefa.org/sites/default/files/ResearchNECreatEconUpdate05.pdf

A comprehensive listing of economic impact studies is available at the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies' website: http://www.nasaa-arts.org/artworks/creativeeconomy_impact.html
