A LETTER FROM
RA JOY,EXECUTIVEDIRECTOR& DAVID HAWKANSON, BOARD CHAIRGreetings!
As we celebrate Arts Alliance Illinois’ 30th
Anniversary year, we are happy to bring you
this report on our 2012 activities and provide
a look toward our future.
For 30 years, Arts Alliance Illinois has served
as a catalyst for strengthening the arts sector
by actively engaging arts activists and cultural
organizations in the policy decisions that impact
their lives, their communities, and the state as a
whole. The activities highlighted in the pages
that follow illustrate the Alliance’s continuing
commitment to making the arts not just relevant
but essential to individuals and communities
across Illinois.
Over the past year, the Alliance seized upon
and created many opportunities to elevate and
advance the arts and arts education. Despite
the state’s unprecedented fiscal challenges, the
collective voice of the Alliance’s network was
heard in Springfield, where we led a campaign to
protect the state’s FY2013 appropriation to the
Illinois Arts Council. We helped to prevent even
deeper cuts proposed to the already reduced fund-
ing support for our artists and arts organizations.
We continue to be the go-to source for data-
driven research on the impact of the arts on our
economy, jobs, and community vitality. In 2012,
we collaborated with Americans for the Arts
to produce Arts & Economic Prosperity IV, a
comprehensive study measuring the economic
impact of the non-profit arts in Chicago, Peoria,
Rockford, and the state of Illinois as a whole.
Proudly, the Alliance serves as a primary convener
and connector of Illinois’ artists, arts practitioners,
arts organizations, and supporters. In 2012, we
led a number of programs and forums where
stakeholders could come together to share
resources, build trust, and engage in sector-wide
collaboration. We continued to partner with the
Illinois Arts Council to serve and support local
arts agencies through the Local Arts Network,
welcomed U.S. Senator Dick Durbin to our annual
Members’ Meeting, and launched the Arts and
Education Exchange, an online resource that helps
educators and arts providers collaborate.

Ra JoyExecutive Director, Arts Alliance Illinois
Over the past year, the alliance seized upon and created many opportunities to elevate and advance the arts and arts education.While our collective voices achieved some gains
in 2012, much more must be done to win shared
policy victories for the arts, culture, and arts
education in Illinois. In the months ahead, in part-
nership with stakeholders from across Illinois, the
Alliance will develop a new and forward-leaning
arts policy agenda to grow jobs in the creative
economy, strengthen arts education, and enhance
community vibrancy.
Our members, advocates, and donors understand
that together we have the power to make a big-
ger impact than we ever could individually. Your
generosity and commitment are essential to our
success and to the strength and vitality of
the arts in Illinois. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Ra Joy and David Hawkanson

The nonprofit arts are a $2.75 billion-a-year industry in Illinois,
generating more than $2.3
billion in income for our
households.
ONESTATEONEVOICE
The arts are essential to Illinois—to our economy, our neighborhoods, our families and our schools. The arts across all forms—music, dance, theater, painting, sculpture, film, photography, and more—are much more than a pasttime or source of entertainment, but contribute to a vibrant society and to all our lives in countless ways.
THE ARTS...
$$$$$ $$ $$ $$ $X 10,000
The nonprofit arts industry
in Illinois supports more
than 78,000 jobs for our
citizens—more jobs than
there are police officers,
legal professionals, or
financial managers in
the state.
Provide students with the critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creative skills that are essential to a 21st century workforce.

Arts Alliance Illinois held its first arts advocacy
day in Springfield, drawing hundreds of
supporters out to rally for the arts and arts
education. The Alliance has continued to lead
delegations to both the state and national
capitol since then.
19821985
A small group of about 100 artists and arts
administrators assembled to contest the state’s
proposals to eliminate funding for the arts,
giving rise to our only statewide nonprofit
arts advocacy organization, known today as
Arts Alliance Illinois.
30YEARSSTRONG
For any and everyone throughout Illinois who appreciates the value that the arts and arts education bring to our lives, the Alliance provides guidance and tips, data, and the training you need to speak out at your schools, in your communities, in your cities and towns, in Illinois and nationally.

The Alliance Heads for the Hill: National Arts Advocacy Day Since that first trip to the state capitol nearly three decades ago, Arts Alliance
Illinois has led teams of arts supporters and friends from throughout the state to
Washington, DC for National Arts Advocacy Day. Participants start the day with
dynamic, hands-on training that empowers them with the knowledge and know-how
to lobby Congress on behalf of the arts. We then head to the Hill, together, to share
our message with members of the Illinois congressional delegation and their staff. In
2012, we pushed for policies to strengthen the sector, including increased funding for
the National Endowment for the Arts and for arts in education programs at the U.S.
Department of Education.
Striking Down the Arts in the State Budget? NO WAY, We Say!Arts Alliance Illinois led a campaign to protect the state’s FY2013 appropriation to
its only agency for the arts, the Illinois Arts Council. The appropriations bill originally
passed by the Senate included even deeper cuts to the council, representing an
11% reduction from funding in the previous year. The General Assembly reduced its
proposed cuts in funding for the council in its final passage of the appropriations.
10
Through testimony before the House
and Senate Appropriations Committees
and meetings with legislative leaders,
Arts Alliance Illinois helped to stave off
double-digit cuts to the Illinois Arts
Council, the state’s only public agency
for the arts.
11
Illinois Makes Art Work Arts Alliance Illinois has a long history of commissioning and producing data-driven
evidence of how art works and its impacts on communities. We know that commu-
nities that invest in the arts reap the additional benefits of jobs, economic growth,
and a quality of life that positions those communities to compete and succeed in
our 21st century economy. In 2012, the Alliance partnered with Americans for the
Arts to produce Arts & Economic Prosperity IV, the most comprehensive study of
its kind on the impact of the arts sector on local economies throughout the nation.
The Alliance collected the study’s data for Chicago, the Peoria and Rockford areas,
and the state of Illinois as a whole. The Alliance is now leveraging the findings from
this study to educate decision-makers and arts sector stakeholders about how the
arts contribute to a thriving economy and booming workforce in Illinois.
“ The arts inspire us, soothe us, provoke us, involve us, and connect us. But they also create jobs and contribute to the economy.”
— Robert L. Lynch, President and CEO, Americans for the Arts

CULTURE COUNTS
For the first time in more than 25 years, in 2012, the City of Chicago created a plan to support the arts and artists throughout the city. Arts Alliance Illinois collaborated with the League of Chicago Theatres, the Chicago Cultural Alliance and others to execute the Culture Counts Campaign, promoting public engagement in the cultural planning process and ensuring that the Chicago Cultural Plan 2012 included meaningful policy wins for artists and arts organizations. More than 80 diverse organizations from across Chicago came together to form the Culture Counts Coalition. The final Chicago Cultural Plan 2012 included all 21 of the coalition’s recommendations.

Arts Alliance Illinois produced One State Together
in the Arts, its first statewide conference for arts
managers and board members in 13 years. In 2001,
the Alliance welcomes the Illinois Arts Council,
the state’s agency for the arts, as a partner and
co-sponsor for the conference.
1999
The Alliance works to ensure that every child in Illinois receives a well-rounded education that includes the arts.
16
Arts & Education ExchangeThe Alliance launched its free, easy-to-use online Arts & Education Exchange in
October 2011, connecting educators with arts providers. Arts providers can post
details, pictures, video, and audio about their programs, and educators can make
requests for their classrooms on the website. The end result is that students are
given greater opportunities for expression and self-discovery through creative
outlets. To date, more than 435 arts providers and 317 educators have registered
on the site, representing 610 unique arts education programs in Illinois.
Join the exchange at www.artseducationexchange.org.
Arts Alliance Illinois released Arts
at the Core: Every School, Every
Student, the first statewide study on
the status of arts education in Illinois
public schools, provoking extensive
media coverage and national
recognition.
The Illinois State Board of Education
subsequently received an appropria-
tion of $4 million for arts education
and foreign language instruction for
FY07, a 100% increase from the
previous year.

Members’ MarkThe Alliance’s 2012 Members’ Meeting and Reception, held in June, featured
U.S. Senator Dick Durbin. Senator Durbin has represented Illinois in Congress for
30 years. His leadership on arts policy issues has made lasting impacts on the
nation’s cultural landscape. At our Members’ Meeting and Reception, Senator
Durbin shared his insights on the importance of the arts and humanities and the
challenges facing the cultural sector in this political and legislative environment.
Over 230 stakeholders representing a wide range of artistic disciplines and
geographic regions of the state gathered to participate in this conversation
and network with their colleagues from across Illinois.
Local Arts NetworkArts Alliance Illinois has partnered with the Illinois Arts Council, the state-funded
agency for the arts, to serve and support local arts agencies through its Local Arts
Network for more than a decade. Through workshops, think tanks, resources, and
network-building, the Local Arts Network builds the capacity and excellence of
more than 100 local arts agencies across the state.
