| Abstract | This monograph, part of a series presenting the work of the Urban Institute’s Arts and Culture Indicators Project (ACIP), discusses three major advances in his ongoing work. First, they introduce a definition of cultural vitality that includes the range of cultural assets and activity people around the country register as significant. Specifically, they define cultural vitality as evidence of creating, disseminating, validating, and supporting arts and culture as a dimension of everyday life in communities. Second, they use this definition as a lens through which to clarify his understanding of the data necessary, as well as the more limited data currently available, to document adequately and include arts and culture in more general quality of life indicators. Third, they develop and recommend an initial set of arts and culture indicators derived from nationally available data, and they compare selected metropolitan statistical areas based on the measures they have developed. |
This monograph, part of a series presenting the work of the Urban Institutes Arts and Culture Indicators Project , discusses three major advances in his ongoing work. however there are more examples of the integration of arts and culture into indicator systems than was the case ten years ago and there are some strong examples of efforts that do take a broader approach in their definition and also rely on less traditional data sources to characterize the arts and culture in their communities. however here too we see evidence of more inclusive definitions and attempts to identify arts and culture data that correspond with broader concepts than was the case years ago. it captures the range of cultural activity that our research has shown people in communities around the country registered as significant and points to the characteristics of place that make robust cultural participation possible. additionally they can be useful because they sometimes challenge or confirm usual interpretations of what some arts and culture measures are indicating.
