Arts and Culture Grow for Third Straight Year
New State Data Show Employment in These Industries Rises in 24 States
Arts and cultural economic activity nationwide grew an inflation-adjusted 1.9 percent in 2014, according
to new statistics released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. That compares with a 2.4 percent
increase in real value added from all arts and culture industries for 2013 (table 1). Arts and cultural
economic activity accounted for 4.2 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), or $729.6 billion, in 2014
(table 2).
For the first time, the Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account includes state-level estimates of
employment and compensation.

National and State Employment
Arts and cultural employment nationwide grew 1.3 percent in 2014, the same pace reported for 2013.
The total number of arts and culture jobs was 4.80 million in 2014, which accounted for 3.3 percent of
all jobs in the United States.
In core arts and cultural production industries, nationwide employment grew 3.8 percent in 2014 to a
total of 1.02 million jobs. Performing arts and design services accounted for about 75 percent of all
employment in the core arts and cultural production industries in 2014 (table 7).
In supporting arts and cultural production industries, nationwide employment grew 0.5 percent in 2014
to a total of 3.58 million jobs. Art support services and information services were the two largest of
these industries. Art support services, including government, accounted for 1.19 million jobs;
information services, including publishing, motion pictures, and broadcasting, accounted for 1.18 million
jobs in 2014.
Today’s release marked the first time BEA produced statistics on arts and cultural employment as well as
compensation for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Those state-level statistics show that 24
states had positive employment growth in arts and cultural industries in 2014. Growth across all states
ranged from a low of -5.8 percent in Montana to a high of 5.7 percent in Washington (table 6).

–3–

Arts and cultural employment grew faster in Washington than in any other state in 2014. Core arts and
cultural production industries grew 3.1 percent, while supporting arts and cultural production industries
grew 6.2 percent. Washington had 154,230 jobs related to arts and culture in 2014, representing 4.2
percent of all jobs in the state. Average compensation for arts and cultural jobs in Washington was
$111,890 in 2014. Software design and online retailers are features of ACPSA employment in this state.

representing 2.8 percent of jobs in the state. Average compensation of arts and cultural jobs in
Florida was $59,326 in 2014.

National Real Gross Output

–4–

BEA’s Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account also includes a measure of real gross output for arts
and culture industries nationwide. According to this measure, total inflation-adjusted spending on all
arts and cultural goods and services reached $1.1 trillion in 2014 (table 5).
Gross output is principally a measure of an industry's sales or receipts, which can include sales to final
users in the economy (GDP) or sales to other industries (intermediate inputs). Gross output can also be
measured as the sum of an industry's value added and intermediate inputs.



Information services was the second leading contributor to the growth in real gross output,
increasing 3.1 percent, after increasing 3.9 percent in 2013.



Performing arts output grew at a faster pace in 2014, increasing 3.7 percent, up from 0.1
percent in 2013. Growth was widespread, including gains in music, opera, and theater.

Updates to the Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account
BEA also released revised national estimates of output, value added and intermediate inputs for 2012
and 2013. The updated statistics incorporate the most recent data from BEA’s Industry Economic
Accounts.

Important Notice
BEA’s Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account (ACPSA) is supported by funding from the National
Endowment for the Arts (NEA).
This release makes available, for the first time, prototype estimates of ACPSA state employment and
compensation for 2001 to 2014. The estimates are being released for evaluation and comment, and
BEA requests suggestions for refinement and improvement. Comments can be addressed to
artsandculture@bea.gov.

ACPSA compensation: ACPSA compensation consists of
the remuneration (including wages and salaries, as well as
benefits such as employer contributions to pension and
health funds) payable to employees in return for their
ACPSA work during a given year.

Accounts: Overview, concepts, and
methodology.

ACPSA value added: ACPSA value added consists of ACPSA
output minus ACPSA intermediate consumption (for
example, costumes rented by a performing arts companies
or printing of the program for the show).
Current-dollar estimates are valued in the prices of the
period when the transactions occurred—that is, at
“market value.” Also referred to as “nominal estimates” or
as “current-price estimates.”
Real values are inflation-adjusted estimates—that is,
estimates that exclude the effects of price changes.

Definitions

Statistical conventions

Defining ‘Culture’ in the context of Input-Output Tables
for the Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account.
Culture can be defined in a variety of ways to include:
language, traditions, beliefs and values. For this account,
arts and cultural production is defined narrowly to include
creative artistic activity; the goods and services produced
by it; the goods and services produced in the support of it;
and the construction of buildings in which it is taking
place.

Quantities and prices. Quantities, or “real” measures, and
prices are expressed as index numbers with a specified
reference year equal to 100 (currently 2009). Quantity and
price indexes are calculated using a Fisher-chained
weighted formula that incorporates weights from two
adjacent periods (quarters for quarterly data and annuals
for annual data). “Real” dollar series are calculated by
multiplying the published quantity index by the currentdollar value in the reference year (2009) and then dividing
by 100. Percent changes calculated from chained-dollar
levels and quantity indexes are conceptually the same; any
differences are due to rounding.

The Input-Output table is a valuable tool to identify and
estimate the value of the ‘creative chain.’ This chain
captures the economic value of the creation of a cultural
product (composing a symphony) from its production (the
performance being recorded in a studio), distribution (by
various modes), and final consumption (by the listener).

Chained-dollar values are not additive because the
relative weights for a given period differ from those of the
reference year. In tables that display chained-dollar values,
the value of the "Not allocated by industry" line reflects
the difference between the first line and the sum of the
most detailed lines. For the real value added by industry
table, this value also reflect differences in source data
used to estimate GDP by industry and the expenditures
measure of real GDP”.

ACPSA output: ACPSA output consists of all domestically
produced goods and services purchased (for example,
movie tickets or design services).
ACPSA employment: ACPSA employment consists of all
wage-and-salary jobs where the workers are engaged in
the production of ACPSA goods and services.
