WHAT DO ARTS AGENCIES ACHIEVE? Arts agencies offer a variety of services, including grants, marketing assistance, public information, technical assistance, training, and research.
Combined, these services:
- make the economic, educational and civic benefits of the arts available to all communities by broadening public access to the arts and reducing barriers to cultural participation;
- support academic success by helping schools to tap the arts as a teaching and learning asset;
- hone a region's competitive edge by fostering a creative work force, shaping an attractive quality of life, and developing the networks of creative products and professionals a region needs to succeed in today's marketplace;
- support small business development by providing catalytic funding and essential skills to creative entrepreneurs;
