Getting started with the California Cultural Data Project

We are pleased to announce the launch of the  California Cultural Data Project (California CDP), the most ambitious and comprehensive effort ever to gather and analyze information about the contributions of the cultural sector to California’s economy and quality of life.  As of January 2008, applicants to many California grant programs will be asked to participate in the California CDP.
