We’ve established five causes relative to our L.I.F.E. mission to help human communities eliminate ideological limitations and provide environments of freedom for all people.
One of those causes is to help insure the continuation of the arts in all forms by supporting individuals, groups, venues and training situations assist individuals with overcoming resource related barriers.
A persistant common misconception is that people from low-income backgrounds are not interested in art. Research shows that this is far from the truth because many from underprivileged communities do appreciate and engage with art but there are several systemic barriers that often limit their access and opportunities to fully participate in the art world.
This article will explore these barriers and discuss how they impact the engagement of low-income individuals with art.
A 2017 National Endowment of The Arts Survey found there were 4 major barriers to Arts Participation.
- Time (73%)
- Cost (38%)
- Access (37%)
- No one to go with (22%)
The Festival Friends Charitable helps provide necessary resources to address each of them by providing resources for tickets, equipment, supplies and transportation.
