Event Details

This event takes place at G.A.R. Hall on the 2nd floor of the Chicago Cultural Center, 78 East Washington Street, Chicago.

The Cultural Data Project recently released a new research report, New Data Directions for the Cultural Landscape: Toward a Better-Informed, Stronger Sector, which offers an assessment of the state of data collection and use in the arts and cultural sector and makes recommendations to move toward a more strategic, coordinated approach to developing new knowledge and information resources that improve the sector’s performance, vitality, and public impact. We now need you to help us with the next step: translating this research into action.

To join the conversation, we invite you to participate in a workshop and town hall with other arts and cultural practitioners, organizational managers, researchers, and grantmakers from your local community. In this first of a series of convenings being held across the country, you will be able to respond to the report’s findings and assess which of the challenges identified in the report are most urgent within your community. We will review the proposed solutions and develop action strategies that will increase the sector’s capacity for data-informed learning.

We ask that all attendees read the executive summary from the New Data Directions report, available here, before the event.
