Join the Conversation on MRC’s Arts and Culture Strategy
Published on 18 September 2023
Murry River Council is inviting the community to have input into its new Arts and Culture Strategy via a series of pop-up sessions across the area.
Council’s Acting Mayor, Frank Crawley said the community sessions are a crucial step in the development of the new Strategy which aims to support a vibrant and connected arts and culture sector across the region.
“We want this new strategy to build upon the existing strengths of our arts and cultural programs and boost the profile of creative industries within our community.”
“It will also provide clear direction on the Council's role in shaping events, festivals, arts, history, and cultural heritage in our region for years to come.”
“So, we invite our community to share their thoughts, perspectives, and experiences with us to help shape the future of our creative sector.”
“These consultations are an opportunity to influence the direction we take, so please pop along if you can.”
To ensure the Strategy meets the needs of the local community, Council have engaged creative agency Spark Strategy to help deliver the final document and drive the pop-up sessions.
Community members can pop along and share their thoughts at any of the following locations:
