Pam Breaux of the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies: Overall, state governments invest $357.5 million in state arts agencies; that represents about $1.08 per capita. During fiscal year 2018, legislative appropriations to state arts agencies decreased by 2.4%; yet, there are distinctions among the states. Twenty-two state arts agencies reported increases in 2018; fifteen reported flat funding, and nineteen reported decreases (50 states and 6 jurisdictions total). The most significant revenue challenge faced by state arts agencies is that they’re inextricably linked to fluctuations in state tax coffers.
