What's it for?

It is for both artists and anyone that can't carry a tune or draw a stick figure. Cultural workers (like stage hands and curators) and theatre-goers. Big organizations (like the AKG) and small businesses (like a local paint and sip!). It is for learners young and old. It is for murals and concerts. It is for a community that is beautiful and engaging to live in, work in, and visit. 

Your input (whether you're artsy or not!) is critical to building a framework for local and external entities to work together in incorporating our arts and culture sector in the everyday fabric of our community and raise the region's profile. 

See more about the project values, goals, and background on the Process page.
