Under normal circumstances, the arts function as one of New York’s most important economic engines, responsible for employing roughly 300,000 people and driving more than $110 billion in income. But the arrival of the coronavirus pandemic in March has put the industry on lockdown, with museums, galleries, and theaters closed for the foreseeable future. Now facing an immense shortfall in tax revenue—about $7.4 billion—the city has proposed a revised budget for the next fiscal year that would reduce the overall budget by $3.4 billion, compared to last year’s adopted budget. Among those cuts is reduction of $10.6 million from the Department of Cultural Affairs (DCLA).
