Broward Cultural Division
is the designated local arts agency for Broward County, mandated by both the State and the County. The Division’s mission is: Enhancing the community’s cultural environment through the development of the arts. In 2006, Americans for the Arts produced a study, The Arts and Economic Prosperity III, which reported that Broward County’s nonprofit arts and culture sector generated $153.95 million in local economic activity

More than 1.8 million residents, 10.3 million visitors, 10,000 artists, 4,100 arts-related businesses, 550 not-for-profit cultural organizations and 31 municipalities are beneficiaries of the services, technical assistance and grant funds through Broward Cultural Division. The Division is instrumental in the support of world-class arts and cultural facilities and quality events that enhance Broward’s lifestyle and the State of Florida.
