  • Targetmarkets AMS Planning and Research
    TargetMarkets AMS Planning and Research TargetMarkets Background and Methodology This report summarizes the results of a secondary analysis of the customer data files from a broad and diverse cross section of performing arts groups, cultural organizations, and entertainment attractions throughout the greater Cleveland area. The study was conducted in July of 1998 by AMS Planning & Research Corp. of Fairfield, CT, in conjunction with the development of a community cultural plan for Northeast Ohio. This study is a secondary analysis of the geographic, lifestyle, and demographic characteristics of cultural and entertainment participants in Northeast Ohio. Results from this analysis are most typically used to assist in the evaluation of marketing activities and to develop improved marketing strategies, specifically with respect to direct mail. In this context, with regard to the community cultural plan, this patron analysis is just one component of a much larger body of research currently being conducted. The consultants use the many pieces of data contained within this report to help determine characteristics of the consumers of cultural and entertainment programs in Northeast Ohio area and the relationship of these characteristics to the overall population. Discipline Groupings More than 50 files were submitted for analysis. Due the variety of quality among the files submitted, some files could not be converted into the required format and were not able to be included in the final analysis.

  • Arts and Culture Printabe Version (PDF)
    ARTS & CULTURE 2020 Citywide Plan Connecting Cleveland ARTS & CULTURE OVERVIEW The arts contribute to quality of life by making communities more livable. They help to define a sense of identity, a sense of place, and they serve as a vehicle for the preservation and transmission of culture. The arts help to form an educated and aware public by promoting understanding in a diverse society and by promoting inquisitive thought and the open exchange of ideas and values. The arts can encourage an individual’s creativity and the generation of new ideas. They play a vital role in the development of desirable products and increasing available choices, whether it is types of housing or leisure activities. Release, relaxation, entertainment and spiritual uplifting are all benefits of the arts. Creating Distinctive Places: Arts and culture are keys to making the Cleveland area an interesting and attractive place to live, work, and recreate. They are a key component for attracting creative and entrepreneurial individuals from across the region and the nation. Arts and culture provide important insights that affect the details of design and result in great architecture, landscapes and public improvements. In addition to shaping the physical form of a place, arts and culture play an important role in creating a social connection between people and the place through interpretation of its natural features, Art can reinforce the story and meaning of a place. history, and meanings and the telling of its [Mill Creek Waterfall] stories. The Arts as an Economic Engine: A healthy and stable arts and cultural sector is a cornerstone for the region’s continued economic and social vitality.
