Operated by The Pew Charitable Trusts, the Cultural Data Project is a powerful online management tool designed to strengthen arts and cultural organizations. This groundbreaking project gathers reliable, longitudinal data on the sector.

Our emerging national standard enables participating organizations to track trends and benchmark their progress through sophisticated reporting tools, empowers researchers and advocates with information to make the case for arts and culture, and equips funders with data to plan and evaluate grantmaking activities more effectively.

The information provided in this map is based on aggregate data supplied by arts and cultural organizations participating in the CDP. With more organizations completing their CDP Data Profiles every day and more states joining every year, the map’s data will be updated regularly.

We hope this interactive map will give researchers, advocates, grantmakers and journalists who are looking for a high-level snapshot of arts activity in their state an idea of what the CDP can provide.
