    National Economic Update Report:

    "Another new tool in making the case for the arts is a national Economic Update Report just released by Americans for the Arts. This is an excellent report and profiles several California cities. The direct economic benefit to the state from San Diego County alone is $24 million, more than the proposed CAC budget for next year. The arts are clearly an investment that pays handsome dividends to the state and local governments in the form of both economic activity and direct tax income." -- Description from the California Arts Council's (CAC) Weekly Update.
