Join the City of Wichita at the State of the Arts / AEP Celebration, where the economic impact of Wichita arts will take center stage. This event, to be held on February 27, 2024, at the Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center, will showcase the results of the Arts and Economic Prosperity Study, revealing how the arts have contributed to $184.7M in economic activity in our community in 2022. Renowned arts leader Randy Cohen of Americans for the Arts will deliver a captivating keynote session on the Arts & Economic Prosperity 6 study, highlighting the social and economic benefits that continued investment in the arts brings to our city.

Wichita's arts and culture industry is not just a source of entertainment; it is a major economic force, generating $185 million and supporting local jobs. The spending by arts and culture audiences has a significant impact on the local economy, benefiting merchants in various sectors. In fact, the typical attendee to a Wichita arts event spends an average of $40.75 per person, per event, on additional expenses like meals, parking, lodging, and retail. This spending contributes invaluable revenue to local businesses and sets the arts industry apart from others.

Thanks to the City of Wichita Division of Arts & Cultural Services, Wichita participated in a national study conducted by Americans for the Arts to measure the economic impact of the arts. At the State of the Arts / AEP Celebration, members of Wichita's arts and entrepreneurial communities will have the opportunity to network and explore ways to attract and retain creative talent. The event will also provide a platform to discuss the revised Strategic Cultural Plan, ensuring that the momentum generated by the arts continues to thrive in our city.

Don't miss this free and informative event, where you can indulge in hors d'oeuvres, light refreshments, and a cash-credit bar. It's time to come together and celebrate the arts as a vital contributor to Wichita's economic prosperity.
