With funding from the Rockefeller Foundation, RMC conducted an inquiry into the perspectives of planning and economic development professionals on the utility of different types of arts and cultural data. RMC created a typology of arts and culture data and tested it through focused discussions and interviews. Through this process we learned about ways that cultural data might be collected and presented more effectively. One outcome of this work is the monograph Communicating Value: Re-framing Arts and Culture Data.
