performances covering a number of different performing
arts (recorded as "combination of performing arts") or
to a community council whose programs encompass a wide
range of
performing and visual arts (recorded as

The information contained herein.Va-S obtained in a survey of
directors of state arts agencies conducted by the National Research Center
of the Arts as part of an extensive study of the state arts agency move-
ment.
The data on a wide spectrum of agency activities and programs were
collected through the administration of a questionnaire in personal inter-
views with agency directors in 1975 and the completion by the agencies of
self-administered forms on the number and make-up of councils/cpmmissions
and staffs, funds received and expended, and project expenditures.
This
directory contains data obtained from both the personal interviews and
the self-administered forms.
The survey focused on fiscal year 1974, i.e., the fiscal year
ending in 1974.
Unless specifically noted in the directory, all information
pertains to that fiscal year.
However, the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of the agencies, the names of chairmen and directors, and the lists
of publications and films have been updated as of May 1976.
In this
respect, it should be noted that data on programs ani priorities and
decision-making responsibilities, which reflect the views of the directors,
-4-
A
were obtained in some cases from directors who are no
longer in that posi-
tion, and current directors whose names appear on the directory pages may
hold different views.
In addition to this directory, the findings of the stud)*r are
being issued by the National Endowment for the Arts in a number of versions,
including a comprehensive report of the results covering all phases of the
survey.
The comprehensive report also contains a more complete glossary of
terms used in the survey.
As noted earlier, the information on the state arts agencies con-
tains a brief summary pf the history and purposes of the agencies as stated_
in the enabling legislation or executive order.
It should be pointed out
in this respect that in a majority of states, mandated purposes are identi-
cal or almost identical, being primarily based upon legislation that created
the New York and Missouri agencies, and generally following a model law
based on the legislation,for these two states that was included in a 1966
handbook,The Politics of'Art, Forming a State Arts Council,published by
Associated.Councils of the Arts.
The complete text of this model law is
contained in the Appendix of this directory.
The requirements of time and space have limited the amount of
information that can be included here.
Any further information on individual
agencies should be addressed to the director at the address of the agency
given at the beginning of each state's entry.
Information on the compre-
hensive repor_ of state arts agencies may be obtained directly from National
Endowment for the Arts, Washington, D.C. 20546.
