Indianapolis' arts organizations continue to grapple with the challenge of developing younger audiences. This is a national issue that arts communities and cities continue to address. With the support of Lilly Endowment Inc., the Arts Council of Indianapolis and Next Generation Consulting (NGC) collaborated on a dynamic project to:

• Discover the best programming, formatting, and marketing to attract and engage patrons aged 40 and under to the arts
• Introduce local arts professionals to younger patrons and programming by involving them in the field research component of the project.
