Overview

North Shore City Council's Community Liaison Department has prepared a draft Arts Strategy to set the vision and framework for the provision and direction of Council-supported arts initiatives across the city, from dedicated arts facilities and events, to working with third party providers in order to support the growth and development of the creative industries across the city.

The Arts Strategy identifies some key outcomes for the Arts sector focused around community participation, city promotion, cultural diversity, and economic, community and amenity development.
 
The arts contribute to the wellbeing of a city by the creation of exciting cultural and artistic initiatives and through the contributions made by the creative industries, developing new skills and stimulating economic activity with new and challenging ways of seeing and doing.

A vibrant city is a healthy city, as it challenges and stimulates its communities in a wide range of ways, creating interesting destinations, exciting events and developing the social capital of its communities.

The Strategy identifies objectives and high levels actions the Council will take in supporting arts in the city.

The draft plan can be viewed at your local Library, Area Office, Community House or Council supported Arts facility or by downloading from this page.

Copies can also be obtained from Sarah Dugdale at North Shore City Council.

Interested persons and organisations are invited to lodge written comments on the draft plan.  The closing date for submissions is 5.00 pm on Friday 20 June 2008.
