Title: Annual Arts Benchmarking
Survey.
OMB Number: New.
Frequency: Annually, in years the
Survey of Public Participation in the
Arts is not conducted.
Affected Public: American adults.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
36,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 4.0
minutes.
Total Burden Hours: 2,000 hours.
Total Annualized Capital/Startup
Costs: 0.
Total Annual Costs (Operating/
Maintaining Systems or Purchasing
Services): 0.
Description: This request is for
clearance to conduct the 2015 and 2016
Annual Arts Benchmarking Surveys
(AABS). These surveys will be
conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau as
a supplement to the Bureau of Labor
Statistic’s Current Population Survey.
The AABS will be conducted in
February 2015 and February 2016 and
are expected to conducted annually
thereafter in years that the National
Endowment for the Arts’ (NEA) Survey
of Public Participation in the Arts
(SPPA) is not conducted. One of the
strengths of the AABS surveys is that

involvement in arts and cultural
activity, and is conducted

approximately every five years. The
AABS questionnaires are much shorter
than the SPPA, consisting of 10 to 12
questions that will be used to track arts
participation over time. As with the
SPPA, the AABS data will be circulated
to interested researchers and will be the
basis for a range of NEA reports and
independent research publications.
Reports on these data will be made
publicly available on the NEA’s Web
site. The AABS will provide annual
primary knowledge on the extent and
nature of participation in the arts in the
United States. These data will also be
used by the NEA as a contextual
measure for one of the strategic goals
identified in its FY 2014–FY 2018
strategic plan.
