Organizational Comparison Data Sheets

Because cultural organizations in Connecticut vary so widely, it can be challenging to understand what is “typical.” To help cultural organizations understand what is typical for organizations of their type, size, and/or staffing levels, we have developed organizational comparison data sheets using the data you’ve provided for the CT Cultural Fund Operating Support Grant.

These data sheets will allow you to compare attendance rates, what is normal content development for organizations of various sizes, and what IDEA efforts similar organizations have committed to. They will be helpful for planning how organizations can grow, while also informing governance (boards) about typical performance.

The following Organizational Comparison Data Sheets are for all organization types:
