As part of our goal of providing top-quality, highly-relevant and insightful research for the arts, Kelly Hill, President of Hill Strategies Research has conducted a number of presentations, many of which are available for download below. Kelly Hill has made presentations to organizations in both official languages, various disciplines and most regions of the country.
As part of the Statistical Insights on the Arts and Arts Research Monitor series, Kelly Hill will conduct two presentations in 2008-09 for no speaking fee. The speaking fee is funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council in conjunction with funding for the Statistical Insights on the Arts series and the Arts Research Monitor.
During workshop sessions at the conference on Official Language Research Issues, organized by the Department of Canadian Heritage, Kelly Hill presented existing research and research gaps related to culture and official languages. The presentation helped stimulate discussions about the state of research into official language minorities in the cultural sector.
In a presentation at the Visual Arts Summit, Kelly Hill provided insights into individual spending on the visual arts, art gallery attendance, art gallery finances, and the situation of visual artists.
Kelly Hill presented data on Ontario performing arts audiences, analyzed specifically for the Ontario Contact conference. The presentation examines demographic and other factors in arts attendance in Ontario. Some implications, including arts marketing and arts education, are also discussed.
This presentation, given as part of the 30th anniversary celebrations of the Fédération culturelle canadienne-française, provides new information about Francophone artists outside Quebec as well as some impacts of cultural activity.
