What the Arts Mean to Tulsa

KWGS News

A study released today shows the economic impact of the non-profit arts industry on the Tulsa region. The bottom line, non-profit arts and culture organizations add $22-million-dollars to local and state government revenues, and support nearly eight-thousand jobs. Tulsa City Councilor  Phil Lakin says that’s important.

He says the arts are not only important to the quality of life of Tulsans, but also to the local economy.
