45,000 US Arts Orgs in Red

January 24, 2011 by Marion Maneker

The New York Times publishes the results of Americans for the Arts’s National Arts Index:

[T]he United States arts sector now includes 109,000 nonprofit organizations, 550,000 for-profit businesses and 2.2 million artists. But more organizations and individuals have struggled to make ends meet; in 2009, 41 percent of nonprofit arts organizations reporting to the I.R.S. failed to achieve a balanced budget, up from 36 percent in 2008.
