Version V1

Creatives Rebuild New York (CRNY) launched the "Portrait of New York State Artists" survey in February 2022 to build a portrait of the needs, circumstances, and experiences of artists across New York State. CRNY used data from this survey to conduct advocacy and narrative change work, and to assess whether the funding provided to artists through CRNY's programs helped meet the needs of individual artists in any substantive or transformational ways.

Upon submission of an application to CRNY's Guaranteed Income for Artists or Artist Employment Program, artists were invited to answer additional optional questions about their artistic practice, financial circumstances, well-being, pandemic experience, and attitudes about policy and advocacy matters. A publicly accessible version of the survey was made available for those not interested or eligible to apply for CRNY funding. The survey closed on May 31, 2022.

Overall, 13,377 artists completed the survey.
