Art and culture are essential elements of urban economic development and planning. However, research on the spatial and normative dimensions of arts consumption is limited. We propose an original theoretical framework outlining a normative concept of urban arts justice regarding the consumption of culture and art. Our framework is based on liberal theories of justice and highlights the distributive aspect of arts capabilities, which we call availability. We apply the framework empirically to the spatial context of the global city of Tel-Aviv and its surrounding metropolitan area. We analyze how the availability of arts is correlated with the social and physical characteristics of the population that is served by cultural institutions. Based on data collected through online web scraping and additional data, we compare the availability of arts offerings in Tel-Aviv and its surrounding area. The results show spatial inequality between the global city and its surrounding area in their levels of arts offerings, which is connected to questions of urban arts justice in the metropolitan ecosystem
