Suggested Language for Informational Statement for Internal Stakeholders Participating orchestras are encouraged to notify internal stakeholders – staff, board members, and musicians – of their participation in the IDEA Study prior to the April 11 survey launch. Subject Line: [Organization]’s participation in the IDEA Study Dear [Name], I’m writing to let you know that [Organization] is participating in a national study of audience attitudes about inclusion, diversity and equity. While many orchestras and other arts organizations have been working on diversity for years, little is known about the level of audience support for this work. A cohort of 28 orchestras has been assembled by the League of American Orchestras to investigate how audiences feel about inclusion, diversity and equity - both generally, and how they feel our organization is doing in each of these areas. All 28 orchestras will deploy the same survey to a sample of their ticket buyers, and everyone will be able to see each other’s results. Only a random selection of our database of ticket buyers will receive an email requesting their cooperation with the survey. The survey is designed and fielded by WolfBrown , a national arts research firm, through its Audience Outlook Monitor program. In light of the sensitivity of the subject matter, it is likely that any of us may get questions or comments about the survey, either positive or negative, shortly after the survey is launched on April 11. Please forward me any questions or comments you receive. To hold ourselves accountable for our work on diversity, we need to measure progress on a number of fronts, and this is one of them. Before April 11, I encourage you to take a test version of the survey, to familiarize yourself with the lines of questioning. Please use this link: [insert test link] Thank you, [Name] [Title]

OPT-IN SURVEYS Audience Outlook Monitor offers several types of research support. Our radically new cohort model for audience research was developed over two years during the COVID-19 pandemic and is now a permanent program. AOM surveys are a low-cost alternative to expensive, customized market research and allow you to track essential information about your customers regularly, year after year. AOM's initial focus is serving the audience research needs of performing arts organizations, although some of our surveys are also designed for museums. Real-time Dashboard Reporting Organizations participating in any of our surveys can compare their results with those from other organizations in their cohort and against field aggregates. Results accumulate in a password-protected dashboard , and you can request as many logins as you'd like. Over time, your dashboard will become an easily accessible archive for your audience survey data.

Basic surveys are available once a year in a cohort format . To gain trend data, you may wish to repeat one or more of them annually or every other year.
