Agency: National Endowment for the Arts. 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 they will both complement and supplement the information collected in the SPPA. The SPPA is the field’s premiere repeated cross-sectional survey of individual attendance and involvement in arts and cultural activity, and is conducted PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 33787 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.
