The definition of economic base is businesses that generate employment in a community or a geographical area. In the terms of economic and the arts what is often calculated is the impact of spending on the arts. Let me go back to the trip Jane Doe took to Chicago to visit the Art Institute Chicago. It is a fact that Chicago attracts thousands of visitors a year base on Chicago rich art culture that includes museums, galleries, theatres and etc. The amount of money that transpires even before Jane Doe got on the plane generated revenue. In addition to that money was spent getting to the hotel, paying for the hotel stay transportation in Chicago, her buying meals and paying the admission fee and etc.
From beyond that
