The Goal
The plan will look broadly at the importance of arts and culture in our region to create a collective and inclusive vision for the area’s cultural sector. It will identify strategies to increase participation, financial support, awareness and collaborative opportunities that will lay the foundation for a thriving cultural landscape.
Cities across the nation have developed cultural plans that have successfully guided the promotion, planning, development, and funding of their community’s arts and cultural organizations.
