Case Studies

The content in this Toolkit is grounded in the experiences of people who are working to develop and implement a wide range of arts and culture-related plans, programs, policies, and projects in different parts of the country. The case studies listed are developed with direct content compiled from interviews with individuals working in the public, nonprofit, and private sectors started in November 2015 and include additional case studies emerging from projects led by Metropolitan Area Planning Council Arts and Culture Department.
