NEA announces latest arts participation survey results.(Items of Interest)(Brief Article)
According to a survey by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), almost 40 percent of adults in the U.S., or 81 million people, attended at least one arts activity during the year. That's up from 76 million in the previous NEA poll conducted in 1992.
Counting all art forms and all types of participation, 76 percent of adults, or 157 million people, made the arts part of their lives during the survey period. Nearly one-third of adults reported going to at least one jazz, classical music, opera, musical, play or ballet performance, not including elementary or high school shows. About one-fourth of adults said they visited an art museum or art gallery. Forty percent reported personally performing or creating art, while more than half watched or listened to the arts on television, radio, recorded media or the Internet.
