Monmouth Arts - Annual Appeal

2011 Annual Appeal          Support Monmouth Arts !  

Did you know that over 700 artists call Monmouth County home? And that each year over 1,000,000 people participate in arts events in Monmouth County - the majority of which are produced by nonprofit arts groups?   These people and events are a critical component of the vitality of our community. They:

Have a positive impact on our economy - over $46 million a year. The nonprofit arts industry is responsible for over 1,293 jobs throughout the county!

Provide high quality, low cost entertainment - why go to New York or Philadelphia, when you can find amazing art events right around the corner.                                 Save Money - Stay Local.

Offer a training ground for young artists - Monmouth County audiences see current and future stars everyday. Not everyone has to become a star, but participation in the arts by children has proven to level the learning field across socio-economic boundaries.
