A nonprofit corporation is conducting an online survey of Southeast artists and arts organizations to better gauge the interplay between the arts and economy in the region.

Southeast Conference is asking full and part-time artists, arts organizations, and organizations that support the arts to complete the short survey. The results of the survey will be published in the association’s annual publication.

Alaska Arts Confluence founder Carol Tuynman said the survey is also open to organizations like the museum, camps that include art activities and other public, private or nonprofit entities that have arts components.

“It’s to see how much money is actually generated by the arts segment of our local and regional economies,” Tuynman said.

Tuynman said she will be contacting local artists this week to remind them to complete the survey.
