New Report: Arts Across Ontario

Ontario's arts and culture sector is a powerhouse, generating nearly half of Canada's cultural GDP and employment. The Ontario Arts Council (OAC) is launching "Arts Across Ontario," a groundbreaking report.

This new tool provides municipalities and regions with robust data on their culture sector's economic output, empowering local decision-makers with the insights they need. The report is the first-ever complete economic assessment of Ontario's arts, showcasing how a $1 OAC investment generates $25 in other revenue and that the sector creates more jobs than real estate, auto manufacturing, forestry, and mining combined. We’re proud to be supporting an industry with so much impact!

If you're an arts or culture organization looking to leverage this new data for your financial planning or strategic development, Young Associates can help you navigate these insights. You can also explore more about financial management in the arts by purchasing Finance for the Arts in Canada.
