Welcome!Welcome to The Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP), an online survey system to collect, track, and disseminate data about the artistic lives and careers of former students who have trained at arts high schools, arts colleges, and conservatories, and arts schools and departments within comprehensive colleges and universities. SNAAP allows institutions, researchers, and arts leaders to look at the factors that most helped or hindered the career paths of former arts students, whether these alumni have chosen to work as artists or pursue other choices. SNAAP is an annual survey of alumni at specified stages following their institutionally-based arts training. Information gathered through SNAAP will benefit arts training institutions, policy makers, and arts leaders, as well as parents and students considering arts training. The information gathered will provide a national profile of how artists prepare in this country and will allow for deepened understanding of what constitutes artistic success and contribution. In addition, data gathered through SNAAP can assist government, funding agencies and community leaders as they consider investments in the education, training and development of artists in their communities.
