    2016 Neighborhood Profile Covenant Blu/Grand Center Blu/Grand Covenant Washington University Medical Center A partnership between BJC HealthCare and Washington University in St. Louis 1 Covenant Blu/Grand Center Neighborhood Introduction The Covenant Blu- Grand Center neigh- borhood is located at the geographic center of the City of St. Louis, home to a dynamic and diverse array of anchor institutions, residents , and venues for the arts. The neighborhood suffered from precipitous decline in the latter half of the 20th century while dealing with significant structural changes, but has been engaging in revitalization efforts with its stakeholder institutions since the 1980s, achieving great progress along the way. Covenant Blu- Grand Center is located just north of Saint Louis University, centered around the Grand Center Arts District on North Grand Blvd, home to the Fabulous Fox Theatre, Powell Symphony Hall, The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, and a host of additional arts, media, and civic institutions and venues. With the motto, “The Intersection of Art & Life”, Grand Center is arguably the center of the high arts community in St. Louis while presenting a skyline of architectural landmarks recognizable and visible to St. Louisans throughout the city. In the early decades of the 20th Century, the area was known as the social hub of Saint Louis, with the city’s 2 grandest social clubs, fraternities, hotels, and classic theatres. However, by the middle of the century, these venues fell out of fashion as society moved westward and many were shuttered. As private investment withdrew from the City, the urban fabric of the neighborhood surrounding the Grand Center Arts District experienced great decline.

  • St. Louis Arts Ecology Report
    Saint Louis Arts Ecology February 8, 2019 PRESENTATION AT THE REGIONAL ARTS COMMISSION ARTS &: NEXT STEPS CONVENING FEBRUARY 8, 2019 Summary The DeVos Institute of Arts Management at the University of Maryland was commissioned by Centene Corporation to study the arts ecology of St. Louis. The goal of the study was to provide guidance to Centene about the needs of the artists and arts organizations in St. Louis. The study examined two cohorts of arts organizations, those larger organizations that receive RAC funding and smaller organizations that receive project support. In-depth interviews and data surveys were performed with 60 organizations from both cohorts. Data for arts organizations in St. Louis were also compared to data from arts organizations in six comparator cities. The interviews focused on key strategic aspects of arts management: artistic planning, marketing (both to increase ticket sales and to engage new donors), fund-raising, board engagement and staffing. 2 Major Conclusions Major conclusions of the study included: - St. Louis has a remarkably large, diverse and productive arts sector that includes a large number of organizations - The largest arts organizations are larger than their counterparts in similar size cities - St. Louis is missing a cadre of mid-sized organizations; most organizations are very large or of modest size - There is a great reliance on fundraising by the larger arts institutions 3 Major Conclusions (cont) - A small group of very generous funders is providing a large portion of philanthropy in St.
