Winning the Chamber’s #ShopARL social media contest last month was an honor and a thrill: I’m really looking forward to attending complimentary Business After Business events all year!

But for me, winning was also easy. For starters, as a small business owner myself and as founder of new Chamber member Awesome Women Entrepreneurs (AWE), I’ve always been a strong supporter of “Shop Local” campaigns. Supporting local businesses keeps our spending dollars in our own community, supporting local jobs and strengthening and growing businesses.

In this article, the three of us – all of whom are Chamber members working in the for-profit sector – will tell you about our interaction with the Chamber’s non-profit community.

​“Art, in short, is good for business.”  - New York Times
 
Business leaders from Medici to Bloomberg have understood that the arts play an important role in economic development. The arts create jobs, boost tourism, promote consumer spending, and generate “buzz.”
 
An arts-rich community has higher social engagement and lower crime rates.
Arts and culture enhance our quality of life, build bridges between cultures and foster deeper understanding across racial and ethnic lines. A vibrant arts community attracts new business and new residents.
