When the University and its supporters successfully grow new artistic talent (be they writers, actors, directors, composers, painters, dancers, etc.), they often create new artistic products and “producers” of these products, who are now able to earn a living while working in the arts. This allows for the advancement of the greater arts culture, as value is created for more artists and their “fans” to be supporters of Cultural Capital, which helps the University create opportunities to grow more new talent, and so on and so on.
