Artist space development : making the case [Recurs electrònic] : Leveraging investments in creativity / Maria Rosario Jackson and Florence Kabwasa-Green
Publication details: Washington DC : Urban Institute, 2007Online resources: Summary: The development of affordable spaces for artists to live and/or work is certainly an important matter for artists, but it can also be an important issue for people concerned with a range of social issues, including economic development, civic engagement, community collective action, and community quality of life. Intended to provide anyone interested in pursuing artists space development (ASD) projects with information about things to consider in making the case for artist space, this report discusses: • How artist space developments have been positioned and the arguments made to garner support for them; • The advocacy strategies pursued; and • The impacts claimed and/or anticipated. The material presented here is based primarily on research conducted in 2005 on 30 projects in seven U.S. cities–Detroit, MI; New Orleans, LA; Philadelphia, PA; Pittsburgh, PA; Providence, RI; Seattle, WA; and Tucson, AZ. Of these 27 initiatives, 23 provide examples of instances when the case for artist space development had to be made to a range of gatekeepers. Those 23 initiatives are the focus of this report. This research was not an exhaustive examination of all artist spaces in these cities. Rather, we focused primarily on prominent developments that could serve as examples of a range of approaches. The report is also informed by previous research on environments of support for artists around the country.
