The City of San Rafael was named #3 in “The Top 40 Most Arts-Vibrant Medium-Sized Communities of 2024” by the National Center for Arts Research (SMU DataArts). We are thrilled to have scored in the top 1% of measures on arts and culture employees per capita, companies per capita, and total compensation paid to arts and culture workers.
We would like to congratulate and thank our local artists and arts agencies, local businesses, community members, and collaborators for promoting accessible forms of cultural enrichment and encouraging creative expressions in our City!
