3 Federal $ 146,000,000 State $ 307,000,000 Local $ 777,000,000

4 When governments increase their support for the arts, they are generating tax revenues, jobs, and a creativity based economy.

5 According to the U.S. Census, in 2011 the value of arts and cultural production in America was $504 billion, or nearly 3.2% of gross domestic product (GDP). For context, consider that the estimated value of U.S. travel and tourism in 2011 was only 2.8% of GDP.

6 The arts put people to work. By investing in the arts, the public sector is fostering a skilled work force of creative occupations that contribute to economic productivity.

7 The arts attract tourism revenue. Cultural tourism is a huge market, comprising some 129.6 million cultural travelers, whose participation in cultural and/or heritage activities contributes more than $171 billion each year to the U.S. economy.
