Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

    Nightlight: Tradition and Change in a Local Music Scene

    NIGHTLIGHT: TRADITION AND CHANGE IN A LOCAL MUSIC SCENE Aaron Smithers A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Curriculum of Folklore. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Glenn Hinson Patricia Sawin Michael Palm ©2018 Aaron Smithers ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Aaron Smithers: Nightlight: Tradition and Change in a Local Music Scene (Under the direction of Glenn Hinson) This thesis considers how tradition—as a dynamic process—is crucial to the development, maintenance, and dissolution of the complex networks of relations that make up local music communities. Using the concept of “scene” as a frame, this ethnographic project engages with participants in a contemporary music scene shaped by a tradition of experimentation that embraces discontinuity and celebrates change. This tradition is learned and communicated through performance and social interaction between participants connected through the Nightlight—a music venue in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Any merit of this ethnography reflects the commitment of a broad community of dedicated individuals who willingly contributed their time, thoughts, voices, and support to make this project complete. I am most grateful to my collaborators and consultants, Michele Arazano, Robert Biggers, Dave Cantwell, Grayson Currin, Lauren Ford, Anne Gomez, David Harper, Chuck Johnson, Kelly Kress, Ryan Martin, Alexis Mastromichalis, Heather McEntire, Mike Nutt, Katie O’Neil, “Crowmeat” Bob Pence, Charlie St. Clair, and Isaac Trogden, as well as all the other musicians, employees, artists, and compatriots of Nightlight whose combined efforts create the unique community that define a scene.

    Durham Cultural Master Plan

    Durham Cultural Master Plan Summary August 2004 What You Need to Know about Durham’s Cultural Master Plan Why is Durham’s arts and culture sector a vital asset? - Durham’s cultural organizations and artists add $103 million annually to the economic activity in Durham. That’s a significant boost to our city’s economic development. - Arts and culture is a significant business sector of the current and future Durham. According to a recent state-wide research study on arts economic impact in North Carolina, the average number of non-profit arts and cultural organizations per county in our state is 19. Durham County has more than 150 non-profit arts and cultural organizations, and more than 900 artists. Additionally it has a lively mix of commercial arts and entertainment providers. - A number of Durham’s own cultural assets are known internationally and nationally, including African American Dance Ensemble, American Dance Festival, NCCU Jazz Ensemble, Full Frame Film Festival, The Hayti Heritage Center and its Blues Festival, Durham Arts Council, Mallarmé Chamber Players, and the arts museums of NCCU and Duke. - Ninety percent of respondents to the Durham Cultural Master Plan’s Civic- Community-Business Leaders Survey agreed that arts and culture provide great ways to learn about our various ethnic and racial backgrounds. Ninety-two percent of the survey respondents agreed that “learning art skills is an important way to master other basic skills.” - National studies have proven that arts programs decrease youth delinquency, enhance a child’s development, encourage conflict resolution, build tolerance and self-respect, provide safe havens for youth, reduce criminal activity, teach job skills, improve attitudes, behavior, and academic performance.
