Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The National Endowment for the Arts
(NEA) has submitted a public
information collection request (ICR) to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995: Clearance
Request for NEA Annual Arts
Benchmarking Survey. Copies of this
ICR, with applicable supporting
documentation, may be obtained by
visiting www.Reginfo.gov.
Comments should be sent to the

7316, within 30 days from the date of
this publication in the Federal Register.
The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) is particularly interested in
comments which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques, or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Agency: National Endowment for the
Arts.
Title: Annual Arts Benchmarking
Survey.
OMB Number: New.
Frequency: Annually, in years the
Survey of Public Participation in the
Arts is not conducted.
Affected Public: American adults.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
36,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 4.0
minutes.
Total Burden Hours: 2,000 hours.
Total Annualized Capital/Startup
Costs: 0.
Total Annual Costs (Operating/
Maintaining Systems or Purchasing
Services): 0.
Description: This request is for
clearance to conduct the 2015 and 2016
Annual Arts Benchmarking Surveys
(AABS). These surveys will be
conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau as
a supplement to the Bureau of Labor
Statistic’s Current Population Survey.
The AABS will be conducted in
February 2015 and February 2016 and
are expected to conducted annually
thereafter in years that the National
Endowment for the Arts’ (NEA) Survey
of Public Participation in the Arts
(SPPA) is not conducted. One of the
strengths of the AABS surveys is that
they will both complement and
supplement the information collected in
the SPPA. The SPPA is the field’s
premiere repeated cross-sectional
survey of individual attendance and
involvement in arts and cultural
activity, and is conducted

approximately every five years. The
AABS questionnaires are much shorter
than the SPPA, consisting of 10 to 12
questions that will be used to track arts
participation over time. As with the
SPPA, the AABS data will be circulated
to interested researchers and will be the
basis for a range of NEA reports and
independent research publications.
Reports on these data will be made
publicly available on the NEA’s Web
site. The AABS will provide annual
primary knowledge on the extent and
nature of participation in the arts in the
United States. These data will also be
used by the NEA as a contextual
measure for one of the strategic goals
identified in its FY 2014–FY 2018
strategic plan.
