Arts & Culture Research Fund Awards $110,000 to Measure the Impact of the Arts Throughout New York State
New York, May 21 – What exactly do arts and culture contribute to New York City and State’s economy and to community development efforts? Are neighborhoods with cultural organizations safer, healthier, more economically vital or stable? The Arts & Culture Research Fund was set up in The New York Community Trust in 2012 with the encouragement of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and the New York State Council on the Arts to answer these questions.
