Today, Arts Midwest shared the return on investment results of our fiscal year 2022 activities with our nine member State Arts Agencies. Each year, we strategically leverage state, federal, and private funds to provide a positive return — delivering grants, programs, and other services to communities across the region.
This year, our nine member states invested $364,345 in Arts Midwest. We turned that investment into more than $3,029,741 worth of programs and services for the people in our partner states. That’s a return on investment of 732%.
All told, our activities reached more than 166,350 people in more than 304 communities across our region.
“We are grateful for our partnership with the Midwest State Arts Agencies, and are proud to have leveraged their investments to support, inform, and celebrate Midwestern creativity across our region,” said Torrie Allen, President & CEO of Arts Midwest. “Together, we are building unprecedented opportunity across the Midwest by advancing creativity.”
