Sponsoring the arts now is big business
Washington reports private companies lead in funding the arts in the United States with gifts and corporate arrangements likely exceeding 1 billion dollars by year end. Despite substantial private support, individual contributions total about 9 billion yearly, while the NEA received 98 million for the year. Government and corporate patterns shape arts funding through tax incentives and partnerships, with GTE and Texaco highlighted for major gifts and programs.
