Thu, 11 Feb 2010 12:42:59 -0500

Join the Penn Institute for Urban Research, along with the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance and Philagrafika, for a discussion with leading experts on how the arts impact local and national economies and their potential to help rebuild them. How can policymakers, civic leaders, and other city builders assess and capitalize on the value of the arts? To what extent is public investment in arts and culture a catalyst for job creation and for-profit development? How should pubic investment be directed, in the balance of capital investment versus operating support? The session will address the local and national policies needed to support art-based economies, the obstacles to building political support essential to public investment, and the research needed to better understand both the concrete and illusive value of the arts to urban communities and the country as a whole.
