By Mark J. Stern and Susan C. Seifert, University of Pennsylvania Social Impact of the Arts Project.
Advocates have long argued that the economic benefits of the arts and culture provide a firm rationale for public support. Recent scholarship on the “creative class” and “creative economy” is simply the latest effort to link cultural expression to community prosperity. In contrast, the social benefits of cultural engagement have received relatively little attention, even though—as we shall see—they provide a stronger case.This document provides an overview of the state-of-the-art literature on culture and
urban revitalization.
