Creative Vitality Index

How creative are we as a state? How have our efforts, through policy and funding, made a difference? What role does creativity play in local communities? In 2006, we set out to answer these questions by commissioning a Creative Vitality Index for Oregon.

The Creative Vitality Index measures the health of the creative economy in a city, county, state or other geographic area as it compares to the national index, and creates a benchmark for future measurement.
