Metris Arts Consulting’ mission is to improve and measure cultural vitality. We believe in the power of culture to enrich people’s lives, help communities thrive, empower communities, and cultivate belonging. Our clients span the country and globe. They include government agencies, community and arts nonprofits, philanthropic foundations, and developers. We help them equitably advance cultural vitality (planning), fill knowledge gaps so that they can effectively incorporate arts and culture into their work (program development), and understand what difference their efforts make, why, and how (evaluation). We use a range of research and communication skills to advance understanding (research for field building). Our work in the realm of creative placemaking launched our practice. Over our ten years in operation, we’ve grown and diversified our services. Our team brings a combined 61 years of experience—it spans government, municipal arts, nonprofit arts administration, research, evaluation, and planning.
