Attention Artists!

SURVEY ABOUT ARTISTS & THE RECESSION

San Francisco Arts Commision: Cultural Equity Grants

Please take 15 minutes to complete the Survey by Monday, 23 November 2009
or, forward to artists you know.

We want to make sure your experience is represented!

Is the recession over in the Bay Area, or still going strong? How are these
economic times affecting artists around San Francisco?  The conditions that
artists face in this current economic climate should be understood and addressed.

The Artists and the Economic Recession Survey invites you to share your
experience. It is being conducted by Leveraging Investments in Creativity
(LINC), a ten-year national initiative to improve conditions for artists,
in partnership with the San Francisco Arts Commission, the San Francisco
Foundation, and the East Bay Community Foundation. The survey is being
supervised by Princeton Survey Research Associates International.

Completing the survey takes about 15 minutes and is offered in both English
and Spanish.

There is strength in numbers and LINC has been working with artists and
organizations around the country to distribute the survey. We want to make
sure we reach the widest range of artist voices possible, especially
artists who may not be part of formal organizational networks. Reaching as
many artists as possible improves the quality of this important research,
and better equips everyone who advocates for artists and the arts.

So in addition to completing the survey yourself, we would appreciate your
forwarding this to every artist you know.

Your participation in our survey is completely voluntary.  If you have any
questions about this survey, please contact techsupport@psra.com.
