Abstract

Creativity in the arts has been influenced by an environment where the integral parts are state provisions, which directly and indirectly support the development of the independent arts sector. The past decades have seen a change in the field of arts and the support thereof as part of creative branches. The paper focuses on new approaches of non-profit arts organizations to receive support for their activities using the principles of cultural entrepreneurship. The research was performed in the Czech Republic in the monitored period of 2008-2016. The theoretical part of the research is concluded by a proposal for a new definition of cultural entrepreneurship of non-profit cultural and arts organizations and is then implemented in the practical part. The practical part includes outputs of the author's research in the field of crowdfunding platforms in the Czech Republic, outputs from the focus groups analysis and a selective survey. Apart from the research, there are outputs of three case studies from the field of non-profit arts, observing their economic behaviour as seen by cultural entrepreneurship. In the end, the paper presents a proposal for recommendations for the non-profit arts sector and the extent of strategic measures at the state level.
