Participate in the 2018 Business Contributions to the Arts Survey

May 21, 2018

The 2018 Business Contributions to the Arts survey, conducted by The Conference Board and Americans for the Arts, is open until Friday, June 8. Please share your data regarding your organization's support for the arts to help us provide important benchmarking information to the corporate philanthropy and arts communities. The survey should take no more than 15-20 minutes to complete.

The findings from this short surveywill be detailed in The Conference Board’s Business Contributions to the Arts: 2018 Edition, and shared with all survey respondents. The year we continue to  track corporate support for the arts as well as partnerships between arts organizations and private businesses. In the 2017 edition, we found that businesses are using the arts as a means of increasing employee engagement, attracting and retaining talent, and that business investment in the arts has held steady since 2013.

The survey is open to businesses of all sizes that participate in arts-related corporate philanthropy, employee engagement, and/or volunteer or sponsorship programs. If you are not the right person to complete this survey for your company, please forward this message to the person who is best able to respond.
