Arts and Culture Barometer 2024: Survey of funding and support for artistic work

The theme of this year’s Arts and Culture Barometer is funding and support for artistic work. We invite professional artists in different fields of the arts to respond to our open online survey.

The survey looks at:

• Employment and working as an artist,
• Grants and their importance for the livelihoods of artists and
• Business and entrepreneurial activities.

The survey is open to all professional artists.

The deadline for responding to the survey is 15 October 2024! The survey is available in Finnish, Swedish or English. The link to the survey can be shared freely.

After completing the questionnaire, you can participate in a prize drawing for the chance to win one of 10 Museum Cards by providing your contact information.

All responses will be treated anonymously, and they cannot be connected to your e-mail address or other identifying information.

The results of the Arts and Culture Barometer will be presented at a discussion forum to be held in May 2025.

The Arts and Culture Barometer is an annual survey that aims to gather the opinions of those working in the fields of the arts about topical issues regarding art policies. The barometer has been conducted by the Arts Promotion Centre Finland (Taike) together with the Foundation for Cultural Policy Research (Cupore) since 2015.
