Recent New Zealand research: attitudes, attendance and participation in the arts

Here's some interesting data collection and a solid analysis of New Zealand audiences' attitudes, attendance and participation in the arts. It's all the arts, not just dance and it doesn't really separate styles of dance. But it demonstrates what is possible in terms of research, and gives a thorough snapshot (approach with a smidgeon of incredulity and scepticism) of current New Zealand and their perception of arts.

Here's the link: New Zealanders and the arts: Attitudes, attendance and participation in 2005 (http://www.creativenz.govt.nz/files/resources/arts-survey-06.pdf)

This research was done by Creative New Zealand. If you want to see their Strategic Plan 2004-07, click on this link.

Happy reading.
