ArtPride New Jersey Unveils New Online Hub to Champion the Arts in New Jersey
As part of its efforts to promote New Jersey’s thriving arts and culture scene, ArtPride New Jersey has re-launched JerseyArts.com–an entirely new online experience that makes it easier than ever for residents and visitors to discover and support the arts community. This launch coincides with the 17th consecutive year of Discover Jersey Arts Month, a statewide celebration spotlighting New Jersey’s vibrant arts and culture.
The new Discover Jersey Arts website is a go-to portal for anyone interested in arts and entertainment offering a streamlined experience for finding events, venues, discounts, and the arts organizations that strengthen New Jersey’s communities.
“The arts are a cornerstone of our communities, driving local economies and enhancing quality of life across New Jersey,” said Allison Tratner, Executive Director of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. “Beyond their cultural value, the arts generate jobs, attract visitors, and help define the character of our state. Investing in the arts means investing in New Jersey’s future, and this new website gives the public access to everything the arts have to offer throughout the Garden State.”
Notably, The Arts & Economic Prosperity six study reports that nonprofit arts and cultural organizations contribute more than $532 million to New Jersey’s economy, employing nearly 10,000 residents and attracting over 5.5 million people to cultural events statewide. This includes $338.4 million in spending by nonprofit arts and culture organizations and $193.8 million in event-related spending by audiences, generating an additional $116.9 million in revenue for local, state, and federal governments.
Discover Jersey Arts Month encourages the public to recognize the arts not just for their cultural contributions, but also for the significant impact they have already made on the economy, job creation, and community well-being.
“This data reflects the true value of the arts, which goes far beyond entertainment. The arts enrich our communities and bring people together,” said Adam Perle, President & CEO of ArtPride New Jersey. “It’s crucial to keep fostering and advancing the arts. The new website makes it easy for everyone to find their next night out while contributing to our local economy.”
Discover Jersey Arts Month aims to inspire New Jerseyans and visitors to engage with and support the arts in meaningful ways. Whether through attending local performances, visiting museums, or ultimately donating to arts organizations, there are countless opportunities to make an impact. The new JerseyArts.com offers a one-stop-shop to explore these opportunities and experience firsthand how the arts matter in shaping New Jersey’s future.
