Economic Theory Fine Arts Management Museums performing arts performing art programming arts analysis reduced model analysis nonprofit administration non-profit administration arts administration The Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) presents both visual arts exhibitions and performing arts events. This thesis recorded data over a three year period of time, May 2002 through April 2005, related to performing arts events, including: the amount of publicity that each received; the weather on the date of show and the season in which each took place; and census information related to the block group from which each patron who attended hailed. The relationship(s) among these factors reveal several items specific to MASS MoCA’s performing arts attendance, mostly importantly how media exposure for a particular event affects ticket sales and revenue. In addition, several other factors are discussed: the effect ticket prices have on attendance; whether poor weather conditions drive down sales and/or limit attendance and revenue, particularly from non-immediate areas; the effect that season has on sales and income; and how patron income influences buying habits. 2008-09-02 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1216910235 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1216910235 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
