City of Charlotte issued the following announcement on Sept. 5.
The City of Charlotte and the Arts and Culture Advisory Board are announcing additional public engagement events in September and October, and sharing tools that residents, artists, creatives, patrons and funders can use to help inform the Charlotte Arts and Culture Plan.
The 10-year plan will determine how resources and funding can achieve sustainability and growth across the entire creative sector in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg area, and identify opportunities for more collaboration among individuals, organizations and other partners. Developing the plan involves listening to communities, gathering and analyzing data, and building consensus on a shared vision for the future of local arts and culture.
To form that vision and actionable steps to reach it, the city is continuing its public engagement efforts with new events, a survey and other feedback tools — ensuring people of all backgrounds, generations, neighborhoods and abilities can contribute to the plan.
Take the Survey
Charlotte-Mecklenburg residents and people involved in local arts and culture are all invited to fill out a survey. It will help the city's cultural planning team understand attitudes towards cultural activities, and how people value and participate in culture. The survey is available in both English and Spanish. Additional languages are available upon request.
