NEA: US Trends in Arts Attendance and Literature Reading

0d934ea4-434a-46b7-be0a-eb4ef3dbfc44.jpg

New survey findings from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) show gains in arts attendance totals, rates, and demographic groups plus sizeable growth in poetry-reading. Published today, U.S. Trends in Arts Attendance and Literary Reading: 2002-2017 is a first look at results from the 2017 Survey of Public Participation in the Arts (SPPA). A partnership of the NEA and the U.S. Census Bureau, the SPPA is the nation's largest and longest-running survey of how millions of adults participate in the arts.

Call for Schools: 2019 Poetry Out Loud

941d5746-ce37-4ef7-a2c7-e63c80674bf3.png

During the fall and winter school season, September 2018 -- January 2019, schools are invited to participate in classroom and school wide contests, advancing to a state competition on Sunday February 24, 2019. State champions will advance to the national finals, to take place on April 30--May 1, 2019, in Washington, DC.

The program encourages the study of great poetry by offering educational materials and a dynamic recitation competition to high school students across the country. Poetry Out Loud helps students to develop analytical and public speaking skills, while building self-confidence.

"In today's tumultuous world, poetry is a space for youth to find and use their voice in a powerful way," said Poetry Foundation President Henry Bienen. "Students involved in Poetry Out Loud spend time with the poems they recite, learning to see them from many angles. That deepened connection makes poetry an extension of young people's lives and experiences that they are eager to share."

High schools that wish to be part of the official Poetry Out Loud program must contact Honolulu Theatre for Youth to participate. Honolulu Theatre for Youth will work with interested schools to include them in the official Poetry Out Loud program. Schools that are not in the official program may conduct their own contests using the online resources. Contact Kasey Lindley at (808) 839-9885 extension 704 or visit www.poetryoutloud.org for more information.

It's Your Art: Art in Public Places

e491fa94-d9f4-4625-b9c1-bf47a84ca8c5.png

At the request of the SFCA Board of Commissioners, the Art in Public Places Program (APP) recently ran a report on Art in Public Places Collection current statistics, including gender identification, first-time purchases, and artwork subjects. Current statistics include:

  • 41% of gender identified artists in the Art in Public Places Collection are women.
  • 61% of acquisitions by the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts in the past two years have been first-time purchases (meaning that it is the first time an artist's work has been acquired by the SFCA).
  • 38% of artworks in the Art in Public Places Collection are categorized as abstract art (items may have more than one subject matter tag, e.g. Manaiakalani II by Hana Yoshihata has subject tags "abstract" and "Hawaii").

Artworks in the infographic above, top to bottom: Manaiakalani II (detail) / Hana Yoshihata / seawater, acrylic pigments, sumi ink, charcoal, pastel / 2017 (first-time purchase, woman artist, abstract); Fish Head, Fish Head, Roly Poly Fish Head (detail) / Jennifer Stephens / mixed media digital collage / 2017 (first-time purchase, woman artist); Abstract #8 (detail) / Janet Davis / oil on canvas / 2017 (woman artist, abstract).
