Arts Advocacy Arguments: Friends or Foe? by Kim Mathie
In pursuit of increased public financial support, arts advocates strategically align arts and culture with larger policy issues like economic and community development, and academic achievement and social development for youth. Through a comprehensive literature review, this paper examines two major arts advocacy arguments that rely heavily on research that supports the largely instrumental benefits of the arts: the arts and academic achievement, and economic impact studies.
The Role of Leisure in Arts Administration, Dr. Robert A. Stebbins Most people who attend arts events (e.g., concerts, festivals, performances, exhibitions) or patronize arts facilities (e.g., galleries, museums, libraries) are seeking a leisure experience. Of use to arts administrators, whose job is, in part, to market the arts they have been hired to manage, is knowledge about this experience, particularly knowledge about its nature and its distribution in the population of actual and potential members of the publics of the various arts.
