Arts & Economic Prosperity in Nevada County
Nevada County Arts Council announces new findings in its 2022-23 Nevada County Arts & Economic Prosperity Study (AEP6). Here you can learn about how our creative economy plays such a critical role in our overall economy.
This report implied a comprehensive survey of 127 entities engaged in cultural programming across the whole of Nevada County over a year-long process, together with their audiences.
Our study is part of AEP6’s larger study, which takes a longitudinal look at how the creative economy drives key business, tourism and workforce factors at a local, statewide, and national level.
The groundbreaking AEP6 study—which marks the most extensive data collection effort in the 30-year history of the study nationally—has broken new ground by prioritizing equity, social impact, community engagement, and inclusivity.
Recorded Wednesday, March 13 at Nevada City City Hall. A presentation by Randy Cohen, VP of Research and Policy at Americans for the Arts in Washington DC, on the findings of the NEVADA COUNTY ARTS & ECONOMIC PROSPERITY STUDY (AEP6).
