New Mexico’s 13 Arts & Cultural Districts submit performance data to New Mexico MainStreet and the New Mexico Arts Commission annually in three key reporting areas:

• A “snapshot” identifying growth of arts, cultural and creative businesses in the Arts & Cultural District and any physical/infrastructure improvements undertaken within the District boundaries.
• Identification of key supports to arts/creative entrepreneurs provided by the ACD organization, including events, projects, and activities supporting arts/cultural enterprises, creative industries targeted, and assistance with rehabilitation or adaptive reuse of historic or cultural properties in the district.
• Identification of resources solicited and received to support creative economy endeavors implemented by the ACD organization and its partners.
