The Creative Industries offers a research-based approach to understanding the scope and economic importance of the arts in Wisconsin. The creative industries are composed of arts-centric businesses that range from museums, symphonies, and theaters to film, architecture, and advertising companies. As of January 2006, Wisconsin is home to 8,615 arts-related businesses that employ 43,383 people. These arts-centric businesses play an important role in building and sustaining economic vibrancy. They employ people, spend money locally, generate government revenue, and are a cornerstone of tourism and economic development.
