Report of the NINETY-EIGHTH ARIZONA TOWN HALL Capitalizing on Arizona’s Arts & Culture Tucson, Arizona May 1-4, 2011 Introduction Arts and culture have been a meaningful part of Arizona since long before statehood, from the rich heritage of the Native American and Spanish cultures that shaped the Arizona experience into territorial days, and the lore of the “Old West,” for which Arizona still is known worldwide, through establishment of some of the earliest libraries, historical societies, public art, museums, performing and visual arts associations early in the twentieth century, to the hundreds of organizations of all types located statewide today. Arts and culture are a part of the Arizona experience in almost every community (rural and urban) are a source of employment for many, a source of leisure-time pleasure for many more, a draw for tourism and represent a significant economic state engine. Arts and culture are essential to quality of life. But what is meant by the term “arts and culture?” For purposes of their discussions, the Town Hall reached for a broad definition designed to include as many constituencies as possible. These include the traditional performing, literary and visuals arts, such as symphony, jazz and popular music, musicals, ballet, modern dance, opera, theatre, art museums, galleries, and new media and electronic art forms. They also include architecture and the built environment, history and historic preservation, represented by examples such as historical museums, archeological sites, and historic buildings, districts and heritage sites. They also include humanities programs as well as programs and places that preserve, honor and interpret our history. Arts and culture include festivals and events that celebrate the lore of the Old West and promote the heritage of Arizona’s varied and diverse ethnic groups. Science, discovery and nature are part of Arizona’s arts and culture through science museums, children’s museums, natural history museums, botanical gardens and zoos. The backdrop for many arts and culture experiences is our climate and geography. The Grand Canyon, the Sonoran Desert, the Colorado Plateau, the various other desert and wilderness areas, and clear skies and mild weather are part of an experience that makes Arizona a special place. Recognizing that sports and sporting events compete with many arts and culture activities for leisure time and dollars, Town Hall felt that they often have differing support systems. For this reason, they were excluded from this definition. The intent was to include all other aspects of Arizona life that reasonably would be viewed as falling under the term “arts and culture.” Beginning with this broad definition and an understanding of the prominent place of arts and culture in Arizona history, and its economy, a diverse cross-section of Arizona residents from various communities and walks of life, all genuinely interested in meeting head on the challenges we face for the future, met as the 98th Arizona Town Hall for three days of facilitated discussions to seek a consensus on how best to capitalize on Arizona’s Arts and Culture. This report captures the consensus that emerged from those discussions. Although not every Town Hall participant agrees with every conclusion and recommendation herein, this report reflects the overall consensus achieved by the 98th Arizona Town Hall.
