ArtsPay NJ, a long-term project to improve pay equity in the New Jersey Arts Sector will be launching the 2025 surveys mid to late July, 2025. 

There will be two surveys distributed to the field during the summer of 2025.

1. The Individual Arts Worker Survey is completed by all people who identify as arts administrators or artists in NJ, including full-time, part-time, and contract/freelance workers. The survey includes self-reported compensation data as well as free text responses related to their perceptions and opinions about arts compensation.

2. The Organizational Survey is completed by a designated person on behalf of an arts organization. They provide compensation information for all job titles (full-time, part-time and contracted personnel) at the organization. All non-profit organizations in NJ for which the arts are the primary focus of their mission are encouraged to complete this survey.

All data is collected by a third-party data analytics firm and is completely anonymized. 

For questions, please contact John McEwen at jmcewen@njtheatrealliance.org or
