Survey of Arts and Cultural Organizations [2000]

Conducted by the Urban Institute, the Survey of Arts and Cultural Organizations [2000] was part of a series of surveys evaluating the Community Partnerships for Cultural Participation (CPCP) initiative. In the CPCP initiative, a total of ten community foundations around the country received grants from the Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest Fund to induce more people to attend arts and cultural events, encourage people who attend to contribute their time and money as well, and attract people who do not usually attend. The Urban Institute was commissioned to evaluate the initiative through surveys of households and organizations in five of these communities.
The Survey of Arts and Cultural Organizations [2000] recorded operating characteristics, performance/exhibition venues, audience expansion and diversification strategies, and organizational partnerships of government or not-for-profit art and culture organizations in five geographic areas: the Kansas City metropolitan area; Humboldt County, California; Silicon Valley, California; Southeastern Michigan; and Boston, Massachusetts. From February 11, 2000 through May 1, 2000, a total of 553 interviews were completed with not-for-profit or government organizations across all five geographic areas.

由城市研究所（Urban Institute）开展的《2000年艺术与文化组织调查》（Survey of Arts and Cultural Organizations [2000]）是一系列评估“文化参与社区伙伴计划（Community Partnerships for Cultural Participation，简称CPCP）”的调研项目之一。在该计划中，全美共有10家社区基金会获得莱拉·华莱士-读者文摘基金（Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest Fund）提供的拨款，用于推动三大目标：吸引更多民众参与艺术与文化活动、鼓励已参与的民众同步贡献时间与资金，以及吸引此前极少参与此类活动的人群。城市研究所（Urban Institute）受委托，通过对其中5个社区的家庭与组织开展调研，对该计划进行评估。
《2000年艺术与文化组织调查》（Survey of Arts and Cultural Organizations [2000]）记录了5个地理区域内政府或非营利性艺术文化组织的运营特征、演出/展览场馆、受众拓展与多元化战略及组织合作关系，这5个区域分别为：堪萨斯城都会区、加利福尼亚州洪堡县、加利福尼亚州硅谷、密歇根州东南部以及马萨诸塞州波士顿。2000年2月11日至2000年5月1日期间，项目组针对上述5个区域内的非营利或政府组织共计完成553份访谈。
