On March 4, 2015, Sunil Iyengar, NEA Director of Research & Analysis, and Laura Scanlan, NEA Director of State and Regional Partnerships, hosted a discussion on how State Arts Agencies and Regional Arts Organizations might use the research findings from three reports issued by the National Endowment for the Arts on the impact of arts and cultural industries on GDP, as well as how and why Americans participate in certain arts activities. A presentation was followed by a Q&A session.
