The Sacramento region is rich with artistic and cultural assets which make a significant economic impact each year. The Arts & Business Council of Sacramento (A&BC) works to ensure the arts remain vibrant by connecting the business and arts communities through a variety of programs designed to capitalize on our clients’ assets, strengthen their areas of challenge, and build management capacity. The arts and cultural industries provide jobs, attract investments, and stimulate local economies through tourism, consumer purchases, and tax revenue. Perhaps more significantly, they also prepare workers to participate in the contemporary workforce, create communities with high appeal to residents, businesses, and tourists, and contribute to the economic success of other sectors.
