RISD Alumni Participate in the 2022 SNAAP Survey

RISD is participating in the 2022 Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP)—a one-of-a-kind survey that explores the lives of arts alumni nationwide.

The SNAAP survey is administered every five years and gathers, analyzes and reports on art and design alumni data to better understand their professional success, educational satisfaction, and personal fulfillment. SNAAP delivers a national profile of how artists living in the United States and Canada prepare for their careers and allows for a deepened understanding of what constitutes success in the arts and the extent of artists’ contributions to culture and society.

SNAAP data helps advance institutional development, including identifying opportunities to improve upon existing programs and curricula; strengthening student recruitment and retention efforts; enhancing alumni relations; supporting grant writing and fundraising and advocacy on campus and beyond.

This October 2022, RISD alumni will receive an email invitation from SNAAP to participate in the online survey. Sharing your experiences will help RISD and many other participating institutions across the country better prepare students for success, whether they stay in the arts or use what they’ve learned in other professional fields.

Please contact alumni@risd.edu with any questions you may have.

SNAAP is supported by grants from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation (EHTF).
