This actually does happen, and has been happening for years. Just do a Google search for "center for the arts" and you'll see that there are a lot of non-profits that provide art education, scholarships, exhibition spaces, etc. to local communities.
I don't know the author, but I find that a lot of the complaints about the "creator economy" really boil down to people who think because they create they should be rich.
Not every person who paints or makes music earns millions, just as not every engineer who writes code earns millions.
