Why the Arts Matter in Nebraska

Updated in 2023 with latest data from the BEA (2021 data), NEA, and state arts leadership.

"The Arts is part of what makes Nebraska a jewel of the country. The rich history and continually diverse growth of arts programming, education, and showcasing across the state not only encourages new artists but also amplifies voices of our community that need to be heard.”
