We also gathered extensive information on the state of development of these organizations and their particular facility needs in order to build a case for new performing arts facilities.

There are a number of regional arts organizations most interested in better access to Martin County arts audiences. These organizations are relatively well developed and already attract local area audiences to performances to facilities as far away as Indian River County and Palm Beach County. Interestingly, these organizations do not see the development of new facilities as threatening to their programs at other regional arts center, but rather as an opportunity to find new audiences for their work. Both local and regional arts organizations find the current inventory of facilities satisfactory at best. These facilities are identified and reviewed in the next chapter.
